For optimal performance, you should calibrate your system to ensure proper level matching between all speakers
and the proper setting of all controls (including crossover frequency, phase, and any channel delays your
receiver/processor may offer). This procedure will vary depending on system configuration and the information
below is provided as a basic guide to assist you. Refer to the owner's manual for your receiver/processor for
information on performing the steps required to enter their setup mode and adjust any applicable settings.
After all connections have been made, turn on the AC power to your system, starting with the first piece of
source equipment in the signal chain (such as a CD or DVD player), then power on any dedicated equalizer,
then power on your receiver/processor/amplifier(s), and last but not least, power on the subwoofer-/s. You will
need to enter your receiver's/processor's setup mode and adjust any applicable speaker settings to properly
match your system configuration
After you have verified all speakers are connected and you have measured distances of each to the listening
position, perform the auto-setup routine on your receiver/processor (if available). Many newer home theater
receivers/processors combine a measurement microphone and an automated setup routine to assist you with
proper setting of speaker levels, crossover frequency, speaker delay and phase. Consult the owner's manual
for your receiver/processor for further instructions on how to perform the setup routine. After the auto-setup
routine is complete, verify the final settings the receiver/processor selected to ensure there are no erroneous
settings (e.g. the settings should match your system configuration). Some settings to verify may include:
Number of speakers (e.g. 7.1 or 5.1 system, etc.)
-
Type/size of speakers (e.g. small or large front/surround and subwoofer set to yes/on)
-
Crossover point should be similar for identical speakers (e.g. if your system using 3 of the same speak-
-
ers for all front channels, verify the receiver/processor selected the same crossover point for all these
channels)
Crossover frequency should be selected. We recommend 80Hz for the satellite speakers to start with.
-
Higher or lower crossover point may yield better results in your system depending on your speaker
setup
Note: some receivers do not have an adjustable frequency, instead there is only a choice of "small" or
-
"large". In this case, we recommend choosing "small".
Gain settings for each channel should be reasonably close (e.g. if the speakers are placed at even
-
distances, the gain setting for each channel should typically be within a couple dB from channel to
channel). If the receiver/processor gain trim setting for the subwoofer channel is a large value (e.g. +12
or -12dB) you may need to increase or decrease the subwoofer's volume to achieve a better match.
