Speaker Setup
In the 'Loudspeaker Menu' you can branch off to the
menus for setting the loudspeaker size, loudspeaker
position, loudspeaker balance and the individual tone
settings for each separate loudspeaker.
The three last menu points enable you to adjust the
loud-speakers accurately to suit the acoustic and
spatial characteristics of your listening room.
Adjustments should only be made to these settings
when you are installing the system, if you are adding,
replacing or moving individual loudspeakers, or if the
acoustic conditions in your listening room are changed
(e. g. changes to the furniture, carpets, curtains etc.).
Speaker size:
Activating this menu point leads to a menu in which you
can determine the size of the loudspeakers and the
sub-woofer mode. Here you can also select the
transition frequency for satellite / sub-woofer mode.
This ensures that all the loudspeakers are fed only the
frequency range which they can actually reproduce.
You can also select at this point whether the surround
channels of 5.1 input signals are only to be reproduced
by the surround loudspeakers, or by the back loud-
speakers, or both (see 'Speaker size menu').
Speaker position:
Activating this menu point leads to a menu in which you
can determine the loudspeaker positions. Here you can
enter the correct distance from each loudspeaker to the
listening position. This compensates for delay dis-
crepancies caused by differences in speaker distance
from the listening position (see 'Speaker position
menu').
Speaker balance:
Activating this menu point leads to a menu in which you
can set the level balance between all the loudspeakers
(see 'LS balance menu').
Tone controls:
Activating this menu point leads to a menu in which you
can adjust the tonal balance of the loudspeakers (see
'Tone controls menu').
Auto Setup
The menu point 'Auto Setup' represents an alternative
to setting up the loudspeaker parameters manually,
using the 'LS Balance' menu. Calling up the Assistant
initiates an automated routine for setting the correct
volume, tone setting and position of the individual
loudspeaker channels in your surround system.
