7.4.3 SPEAKER CONFIGURATION
The Speaker Configuration Setup Menu allows you to enter information about how many speakers you have
in your system and their relative size. Here you will also set up the Bass Management for your whole system.
Note:
This is an important setup that you must perform in order to optimally direct all audio information
and achieve high quality sound reproduction from your system.
Entering information about the size of your speakers will enable the AVM 2 to control bass information so
that it is not lost or distorted by smaller speakers, which may be unable to reproduce large amounts of bass.
•
Speaker Size
Choices are (menu 3.a-c): ‘None’, ‘Small’ and ‘Large’.
•
Small or Large:
As a general guide, bookshelf or satellite speakers that are less able to reproduce
bass are considered ‘Small’. Floorstanding or big bookshelf speakers with either a big single woofer
or multiple smaller woofers are considered ‘Large’.
• Set L/R FRONTS first, then L/R SURROUNDS, CENTER and finally SUBWOOFER.
Note:
Some combinations are not allowed such as setting the L/R FRONTS to ‘Small’ and SURROUNDS
to ‘Large’. The AVM 2 automatically changes these settings to prevent unallowed combinations.
(menu 3.c-d) No Center Channel or Subwoofer:
• If you do not have a Center Channel speaker or Subwoofer you must let your AVM 2 system know.
Set CENTER to ‘None’ and / or SUBWOOFER to ‘No’. The AVM 2 will then route Center Channel and
bass information to the L/R FRONT speakers.
Bass Management:
The AVM 2 contains a sophisticated Bass Management system which will route bass information in the most
appropriate way, based on your speaker size, to ensure the best sound performance possible.
(menu 3.d) Subwoofer Settings:
•
‘No’
All bass is routed to L/R FRONTS which are automatically set to ‘Large’.
•
‘Yes’
Extracts the bass from all speaker(s) set to ‘Small’ and routes it to the SUBWOOFER. In
addition, bass present in the ‘.1’ LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel in 5.1 Dolby Digital /
DTS encoded material is routed to the SUBWOOFER.
•
‘Super’
Extracts LFE bass, copies bass from speakers set to ‘Large’, or extracts bass from
speakers set to ‘Small’, and routes this combined bass signal to the SUBWOOFER and
‘ L a rge’ L/R FRONT and SURROUND speakers.
Note:
When playing standard analog signals or PCM program material, such as CD, with your Front
speakers set to ‘Large’ and the Subwoofer set to ‘Super’, you will require an external low-pass
crossover for your subwoofer. Most self-powered subwoofers have one built-in.
