Speakers and Room 

You need to configure the MP-60 according to your speaker setup, setting the sizes of the speakers, so that 
the Bass Management function can optimize the overall performance. In the setup page the connectors will 
be highlighted with information as to signal type. 
 

In the web interface the designation of the output can be grey text instead of white to 

indicate that these outputs are not native but generated by the processor. 

 
The purpose of the speaker setup is to tell the system which speakers and subwoofers are available and 
how big they are, which in turn reveals how much bass the speakers are capable of reproducing (Bass cutoff 
frequency). The bass for each speaker channel is directed to the optimal subwoofer(s) connected. 
 
References to “speakers” in this document are specific to satellite or full-range speakers and do not include 
subwoofers. As factory default the MP-60 is displaying a 7.1 speaker configuration as shown below: 
 

 

 
The setup page is an overview of the possible speaker outputs, which you can activate.
