Adjusting the AV receiver
Most AV receivers feature a menu with speaker settings
(referred to as “Speaker Setup” or the like). If this is the
case, you should make the following settings:
• Size of the front, center and rear speakers are set to
“normal” or “small” – not “large”
• “Subwoofer” to “on”
• Crossover frequency for subwoofer to 80 Hz
• Volume of the subwoofer to more than 75 %
Set the subwoofer volume to the THX level. For this, push
the button
18
“THX” on the remote control while the
subwoofer is on. The display
12
“THX” illuminates in red.
These settings ensure that the subwoofer is used optimally
and you can do the final fine tuning via the automatic
calibration function or the menu of your AV receiver.
Non-adjustable AV receiver
If your AV receiver does not provide the above options,
you can make the most important settings directly on the
subwoofer. To do so, you will need a CD or DVD with
adequate, powerful sound.
Note
The setting elements on the back side of the
subwoofer only work when THX mode is turned
off (the display
12
“THX” is off).
• Set the separation frequency with the control
4
“LP
FILTER” to approx. 80 Hz (second dash). This way, you
specify that the subwoofer only plays sounds up to this
frequency (adjustment range: 60–220 Hz).
• With the control
3
“HP FILTER” you can block low
frequencies (adjustment range: 20–60 Hz).
• With the switch
5
“SENSITIVITY”, soft signal sources
can be amplified by 10 dB (switch setting: left).
• Once you have set the best sound, switch phase shift-
ing on and off several times with the button
16
“Phase”
(display
11
“Phase” is green). Then select the setting
at which the subwoofer sounds as loud and precise as
possible.
• Optimise the settings with other CDs/DVDs and differ-
ent volumes.
Rear speakers
The rotary switch on the back of the rear speakers should
normally be set to the intermediate position “DIPOL” (for
professionals: the baffle boards then project sound with
the phase shift).
If used as a rear center speaker, “BIPOL” must be se-
lected (baffle boards project sound in phase). If two rear
center speakers are used, “MONOPOL” is deactivated
for each baffle board and the speakers are set up with
the silent sides facing one another.
