USING THE DSP
LOUDSPEAKERS

Changing the listening position
The balance control of the DSP loudspeakers uses digital signal processing
to compensate for an off-centre listening position by delaying
and diminishing the sound in one speaker, thus effectively
shifting the speaker’s image back.
The axis control allows you to adjust the optimum listening
height of the DSP loudspeakers, like a balance control
operating in the vertical plane.
To change the balance
• Press Function
<
or Function
>
on the remote until the display shows
the current balance.
For example:
Bal. <0>
• Press Function
A
or Function
V
to change the balance.
The display shows the direction and position of the listening position.
For example:
Bal. 12>
There are 32 steps in each direction.
To change the axis
• Press Function
<
or Function
>
on the remote until the display shows
the current axis setting.
For example:
Axis -1
• Press Function
A
or Function
V
to change the axis.
The axis can be adjusted between 3 and -2, 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.
If you have a
Meridian Surround Controller
these functions are performed
via the surround controller.
