Changing the axis or phase
Larger models of the DSP loudspeakers have an axis
control that allows you to compensate for the height of
the listener relative to the tweeter.
You can also change the absolute phase of the signal,
to compensate for signals which are out of phase,
giving an unnatural-sounding bass.
The axis control is only available if your 808 is set
up with fixed outputs.
To change the axis
Press
<
or
>
(remote) until the display shows the
current axis setting.
For example:
SLS Axis -1
Press
A
or
V
(remote) to change the axis.
The axis can be adjusted between -2 and +3, where
0 corresponds to the axis of the treble unit. Usually a
listener will be below that position, so we recommend
settings of -1 or -2.
To change the phase
Either:
Press

current phase.
For example:

Press
