Set the peak limiter -
The peak limiter is designed to limit the maximum level of bass information. When set to
0.0 dB (default) the limiter is disabled. If your system is being used with a subwoofer not incorporating it’s own
limiter or have no subwoofer, then the peak limiter may need to be set to allow proper operation.
Warning - the peak limiter test tone may result in extremely high volume levels
Peak limiter level calibration allows you to set the maximum obtainable volume sent to the speakers reproducing
bass information. For best results it is important that you perform this calibration when you initially install your
processor, or whenever you change speakers. You set this parameter by ear using the test tone supplied when
entering the peak limiter. Sit in your normal listening spot. Check that you are in SETUP CROSSOVERS + LFE
and that your remote is in B&K mode. Moving to Peak Limiter and pressing SEL or ENTER activates a noise test
tone which will aid in adjusting the level to the point at which the bass speakers sound like they are having
difficulty reproducing the test tone. Once this level is achieved, reduce the adjustment 1 dB and press the SEL
button on the remote to save the peak limit setting. If the level is increased all the way to 0 dB with no perceived
distortion, then just leave the setting at 0 dB. If the correct values is known, the peak limiter may be set without
the use of the test tone.
