Audio Setup
As well as the Audio setup as described earlier in this manual, if you have multiple speaker
audio set up, either through the television, an analogue speaker setup or a Home Theatre
System, the BLU-BD1080 allows you to fine tune the audio output to best suit your
environment.
From the
Main Setup
menu select
Audio Settings >> Speaker Settings >> Configuration.
Select the number of speakers that you have connected to your system from simple stereo
speaker (2.0), stereo speaker with a subwoofer (2.1) right up to full
DTS-HD
High resolution
7.1 channel system.
You will be asked to select the Channel mode for the selected option. These options will
vary depending on what equipment you may have connected to the player via the HDMI
cable. The BLU-BD1080 may automatically detect an HDMI connected Home Theatre System
and select the number and type of audio channels available

The Audio configuration should be used in conjunction with the documentation for your
Home Theatre or speaker setup. This documentation will show the best position, angle and
distance for each speaker.
The Speaker settings in the Audio setup allow you to fine tune the audio and set the size
trim and delay for individual speakers as they are placed in the room.
A test sound is also available to help set the position of the speakers in relation to your
viewing position.
Note:
Speaker Identification and terminology may vary slightly between
manufactures. Please read all documentation carefully to help identify all
components and how they relate to terms used in this document.
