Speaker Setup
The first purpose of the 'Speaker Setup' is to allow you
to distribute the output signals correctly to the
loudspeakers which form part of your surround system.
If your system does not include a “full set” of
supplementary loudspeakers (center, rear and
subwoofer), it is important to mark the missing items as
none in the 'Speaker Setup'.
The corresponding sound signal is then mixed down onto
those channels which are present (Downmix).
The last three menu points enable you to adjust the
loudspeakers 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.).
Main size:
Defines the size and bass capacity of the main left and
right front loudspeakers. Select one of the following
settings: *)
satellite for small speakers whose bass
reproduction is necessarily restricted. The
low bass content (below 80 Hz) of the
main channel signals is mixed down onto
the subwoofer, if present.
full range for larger speakers. The full frequency
range is passed on to the main speaker
channels without restriction.
Center size:
Defines the size and bass capacity of the center
speaker. Select one of the following settings: *)
none if no center loudspeaker is present. The
center channel is mixed down onto the left
and right main loudspeakers.
satellite for small speakers whose bass
reproduction is necessarily restricted. The
low bass content (below 80 Hz) of the
main channel signals is mixed down onto
the subwoofer, if present.
full range for a center speaker of about the same
size as the main loudspeakers. The full
frequency range is passed on to the center
channel without restriction.
Note:
If your system does not include a center speaker, the
main loudspeakers should be set up not too far away
from the TV set, and ideally should be arranged
symmetrically about it, otherwise it will be very difficult to
localise dialogues on the television screen.
