Bass Management
Some older surround sound decoders and receivers offer a choice of "Nor-
mal" or "Wide-band" modes for the center channel speaker. The Model 4200
C is designed to be used in the Normal mode. Additionally, digital processing
multi-channel systems provide a Bass Management menu, which typically
requires you to select between "Small" or "Large" speakers during system
set-up. Since these systems have been designed to work with a dedicated
subwoofer, please set all the speakers in System 4200 to Small.

reflective (hard) and absorptive (soft) surfaces. The Reverberant position
ON
is designed for rooms with an abundance of reflective surfaces like hard-
wood or tile floors, glass walls, etc. It decreases the high frequency output
of the speaker to reduce excess HF energy that builds up in live rooms. The
THX / NORMAL
Damped position brings the tweeter's output slightly above flat response to
compensate for overly absorbent rooms with lots of soft surfaces. Speak-
ers in overly damped rooms can sound dead and lifeless unless compen-
sated.

NOTE: Although these controls have been designed to compensate
for various acoustic room anomalies, we recommend that you try
them to hear the difference that they make in the sound of the sys-
tem. For any number of reasons, you may decide that you prefer them
set in a particular manner inconsistent with your room's acoustics,but

which sounds best to you. Experiment. It will be worth it.
Dipole/Bipole Operation of the SR Speakers
BIPOLE
Bipole mode is easily accomplished using a toggle switch conveniently
located under one of the speaker's grilles. Please note that the vast majority
of the time in movies and TV broadcasts the surround speakers are called
upon to reproduce the environmental sounds that are used as cues to help
get you immersed in the scene on the screen. Once the surround speakers
are properly positioned in the listening area, we recommend that you begin
with the dipole mode, as this usually delivers the most involving and believ-
able surround performance in most situations. However, as noted above, feel
free to experiment with both switch positions.
