Not an internal CPU question but I'll ask my favorite experts anyway...….
My MSI motherboard has an optical audio out. My Klipsch; The Sixes powered speakers offer an optical input as well as a subwoofer out via LFE. According to set up instructions on my Klipsch sub when plugged in via LFE. You set the sub cutoff as high as possible. Last notch is marked LFE. You set gain at 1/3 to 1/2 and can adjust based on listening.
….....My question is since sub is now set up to run wide open (all frequencies allowed) What does the LFE channel do? Does it adjust bass cutoffs and volume? Everyone knows the bass signal comes down the LFE cable but is LFE modifying/improving it?
