The following overview describes the settings avail-
able through the subwoofer display menu in greater
detail. Please be aware that this overview is directed
at advanced users who already have some technical
knowledge about loudspeakers and amplification.
For a simple step-by-step guide on how to set up the
M 7200 SW THX Select subwoofer, please refer to the
Quick Guide (page 3 ff.). An advanced setup procedure
that assumes a working knowledge of the functions
described below is provided in Chapter 12.
Level
After you have switched on the subwoofer, the “Up”
and “Down” buttons below the display function as
the volume level control. The new setting takes ef-
fect immediately and the volume level is adjusted
accordingly.

Subwoofer – Level

Setting the subwoofer's volume level from this menu
item works the same way as the default volume con-
trol after the unit is switched on. Note however
that the menu entry is only applied after you press
“Enter” and the symbol appears. The level se-
lected via the menu is saved when the subwoofer is
switched off and automatically restored when it is
switched back on.
Subwoofer – Delay
Figure:
Delay, Set 2.5m
Use this setting to delay the subwoofer's output
signal.
This may be advisable if the subwoofer is placed
closer to the listener than the satellite speakers.

How to calculate the delay distance
Simply enter the delay value as the distance (in
metres) by which the subwoofer is closer to the
listener. To determine this value, subtract the dis-
tance between the listener and the subwoofer from
the distance between the listener and the satellite
speakers. The delay setting is applied after you press
“Enter” and the symbol appears.
Please note that digital surround receivers provide
delay options for all the channels (subwoofer and
satellite speakers), which means you can set up all
the delay values from the same unit. The subwoof-
er's delay function is most useful in conjunction
with conventional stereo devices (2.1 configuration)
that do not provide their own delay compensation.
