2.6 Setting up SweetSpot™ (SST™)
SweetSpot™ allows you to sit anywhere within the room and still receive a correct stereo
image. To set up this technology first ensure your Y Speakers are placed and oriented
correctly as shown in sections
2.1 Y Speaker Positioning
and
2.2 Y Speaker Distance
and Orientation
.
The Front and Rear speakers have separate SST™ Settings to ensure SST™ is operating at
the highest quality. The
SST™ factory default setting is 0.5
, which covers a wide range
of environments. To set up SweetSpot™ for your listening environment follow the steps
below.
1.
Measure the distance from the most off centre seating position to the
closest
Front Y
Speaker, as shown in the diagram on the next page to obtain the
Close Distance
.
2.
Measure the distance from the most off centre seating position to the
furthest
Front
Y Speaker, as shown in the diagram on the next page to obtain the
Far Distance
.
3. Subtract the
Close Distance
from the
Far Distance
to obtain the
Delay Distance
,
refer to the table below and set the SST™™ FRONT dial to the corresponding number.
This delays the outside Electrostatic Panel on the Y Speakers by the time difference
between the close and far speaker.
