Clip proctection
: Each of the audio signal paths also has a peak limiter
protecting its outputs to ensure that the speaker signals are not clipped at high
listening levels. Disabling these peak limiters under
Clip protection
allow high-
level signal to pass unmodified to the DAC. However, if set to off, some output
signals are clipped and distortion heard, therefore, clip protection should be left
on.

Speaker groups
Speaker groups – introduction
In the
Speaker groups
menu, you can make different speaker groups for different
listening positions or loudspeaker combinations. This means that you can use your
speakers differently in different scenarios.
In scenario 1 in the illustration, the right speaker in the top may be set up as a right front
speaker when you watch television from the couch, whereas in scenario 2, the same
speaker may function as a right back speaker when you sit in the armchair listening to
music. The same speaker has different roles in the different speaker groups, and in some
speaker groups, the speaker may not be included.
For each group, you must assign roles to the speakers, set the distance between the
speakers and your listening position and calibrate the speaker level. It is possible to set
distances and speaker levels for each speaker group either manually via the
Speaker
groups
menu or automatically if you connect a calibration microphone.
In the
Speaker groups
menu, you can also see if a speaker group has been set for one or
more of the MyButtons.
You access a
Speaker group setup
menu from the Home menu if you press

on-screen instructions to create or edit a speaker group. For more advanced speaker
