to these settings the MAP determines automatically the amount of bass information
that is sent to each speaker. Due to the different calculating operations that are
needed for this bass management, the perceived volume level may vary between
different settings.
2.
Distance of speakers to the listening position: Use key
Delay Manager
(refer to chapters
'Remote control'
and
'Preferences / Setup'
)
Measure the distance of each speaker to your listening position and enter the number
into the Delay Manager. Your MAP automatically calculates the necessary delay of
each channel so that the music signals arrive at the exact same time at your listening
position. As the delay settings are calculated and setup in real time, the music signal
may be influenced for the short moment of setting the new value.
3.
Level setup: Use key
TestTone
(refer to chapter
'Remote control'
, section
'Keys for level setup'
)
The noise signal will support you to determine the correct level of each speaker, so
all perceived volumes are the same. This setup is necessary as different speakers have
different sensitivities causing different perceived volumes though the input signal has
the same level.
Note:
After adjusting the volume levels of all speaker channels we recommend to save
these settings to all input channels as a simple start up for further channel or source
dependent level settings. To save the current level settings to all input channel, press the
following keys on the remote control:

Now all input channels have the same volume level settings. Of course, you can change
these settings easily for each input channel independently if necessary. After these 3
steps the most important global settings are done.
Following the global setup there are lots of options that are valid for each input channel
separately. These local settings are necessary to meet all the demands of different source
units connected to the MAP's inputs. Please refer to section
'Preferences / Setup'
,
subsection
'Channel Setup'
for further details.
