●Multi Channel
2 Channel The MVP881BR Multi Channel Mode allows internal decoding of the various
Dolby and DTS Digital Signals (including Dolby True HD and DTS-Master)
with the decoded signal available at the 7.1 Analog Output Jacks. The Multi
channel Mode has adjustments for Loudspeaker low frequency performance/
size, volume output level and distance from the preferred viewing/listening
room location. Follow the on screen instructions when making adjustments.
Note: A tape measure and sound presure meter will greatly assist in
making the adjustments.
Speaker Configuration:
The LARGE Setting refers to the Loudspeaker capability for reproducing
bass frequencies down to 35Hz within -3dB of the midrange frequencies. If a
Loudspeaker can not reproduce bass frequencies down to 35Hz within -3dB
of the midrange frequencies it is considered SMALL. If a channel has no
Loudspeaker connected then select NONE.
Note: Contact your Dealer or the manufacture of the Loudspeaker(s) for
additional information.
Channel Level:
A properly setup Home Theater Surround Sound System should have all
Loudspeaker levels adjusted to the same starting reference volume level in
the preferred Listening/Viewing Area. The MVP881BR includes a built-in
test signal generator, which can have its output switched into each Loud-
speaker manually or automatically. The desired test signal volume levels of
each Loudspeaker can be determined, in the Listening/Viewing Area, either
by listening or with a sound pressure meter. Level adjustments are made in
small steps (0.5dB).
Distance:
The following Delay Time Adjustments will electronically compensate for
different Loudspeaker distances from the preferred Listening/Viewing Area.
Refer to figure 13. Delay Time is measured in feet or meters. The delays can
be adjusted from 0 foot to 27 feet in one foot increments for each Loud-
speaker.
Note: Before performing the Delay Time adjustments, you must first
have completed the Loudspeaker Size and Level adjustments.
The 2 Channel Mode will downmix a 7.1 sound track into 2 channels and
is available at the Front Left (FL) and Front Right (FR) 7.1 Analog Output
Jacks.
