SYZYGY | Operating Instructions
DELAY
If your subwoofer is placed closer to the listening area than your front speakers (not our
recommended placement), you may experience an audible difference in when sound
from speakers and sub reaches your ears. You can adjust the timing of the signal to
compensate. This ensures music from your Syzygy sub and home theater speakers
reaches your ears at exactly the same time. Experiment at the current position to see if
delay is noticeable. If it is, adjust accordingly.
TIP! Increasing delay time by 1 millisecond (msec) is equal to moving the subwoofer
12˝ (30.5 cm) farther away from the listening position.
TIP! Most A/V receivers and preamplifiers automatically adjust for this time delay, in
which case simply set the delay feature on your Syzygy sub to the minimum setting.
For more details on adusting for delay, review the Operating Manual that came with
your A/V receiver or preamplifier.
AUTO EQ
Auto EQ activates your Syzygy sub’s SoundSculpt technology via the intuitive Syzygy
Sub Control App.
Working with your smartphone’s built-in microphone, the app automatically performs
three important steps:
1) It calibrates your smartphone’s built-in microphone.
2) It measures in-room frequency response.
3) It analyzes the measurements using a scientific reference point, then adjusts
subwoofer output, equalization and phase to ensure room perfect bass.
