13. Positioning in the room
•
The soundbar can be mounted above or below the
television. It can also be positioned on furniture. The
subwoofer is placed on the floor near to the television.
Note
•
Make sure that the soundbar is set up horizontally.
•
To prevent audio quality limitations, the connection
side of the soundbar should always point towards the
television.
•
Do not place the soundbar inside a cabinet.
14. Equaliser profiles
You can choose between three different equaliser modes
for the playback of your audio signals:
•
Cinema mode emphasises low and very low frequencies,
as well as trebles. The large dynamic range of spectacular
film productions is played back impressively.
•
In Music mode, all audible frequencies are played
back linearly (equally loud) if possible. Nothing is
artificially over- or underemphasised; the behaviour of
the soundbar is neutral. Music sounds just how it was
recorded.
•
Voice mode focuses on the human voice, which lies mid-
range in the audible frequency spectrum. Spoken word is
played back particularly clearly in this mode.
•
Press the [
CINEMA
] button (7) on the remote control to
activate Cinema mode.
•
Press the [
MUSIC
] button (8) on the remote control to
activate Music mode.
•
Press the [
VOICE

activate Voice mode.

point. This can often be done using the web interface,
as well.

connect to the network.
