e.Surround Equalization Alignment (Cat. No. 441) Notes
Adjust the Left Surround bass control on the Cat. No. 441 card for as flat as possible low frequency response on the RTA. Use caution when adjusting the bass control; many surround loudspeaker systems are deficient in their low frequency response. Attempts to boost the output of such system beyond their capabilities simply wastes amplifier power and can result in distortion and possibly damage to the surround loudspeakers.
Adjust the Left Surround treble control to its mid point, so that it provides neither cut nor boost.
Adjust the mid frequency controls as follows: Turn the Cut control fully clockwise (CW). Set the Q and freq controls to their mid positions.
Note the position of the center of the highest frequency peak in the 350 Hz to 3 kHz region on the analyzer screen.
Turn the Cut control fully counterclockwise and note the position of the notch produced by the equalizer.
