consult
the
owner's
manual
of
your
surround
electronics

application
of
bass
management
settings.

rule,
compact
speakers
(Bookshelf,
Center
Channel

Surrounds)
are
set
to
the
"Small,"
or
bass-limited
setting.
•
Floorstanding
speakers
are
typically
set

the
"Large,"
or
full-range
setting.
•
Also
refer
to
the
electronics
instructions
for
adjusting
the
relative
volume
levels
of
the
speakers
so
they
are
at
the
same
level
when
in
the
listening
position.
CARE
AND
CLEANING

Occasional
dusting
or
wiping
of
the
cabinet

abrasive
or
solvent
type
cleaners
or
harsh

vacuum
cleaner
