Advanced Setup
For reaching excellence of sound, it is often necessary to consider room
acoustics and to adapt IAP 8 to the room and loudspeakers:
– If necessary, acoustically treat your room.
– If you use subwoofers, configure bass management (Chapter 7).
– Calibrate the loudspeaker setup for your central listening position by
applying gain and delay trim to the loudspeaker signals (Chapter 5).
1 1 When measuring your sound system, you can
reproduce sound over each output channel individually
in the Measurement sub-menu (Chapter 9).
IAP Calibration software greatly facilitates
measurement and calibration of your system
(Chapter 10).
– If desired, apply equalizers (Chapter 6) to the loudspeaker signals to:
– Attenuate overly strong low frequencies from loudspeakers
positioned near walls or corners.
– Attenuate room resonances.
– Adapt the sound to the spectral response of the room.
– Calibrate loudspeakers behind a video screen.
