Bass Manager

Pressing the BASS MANAGER button enables you to select from three different settings of Bass; Bass Config.1, Bass Config.2 and Bass Config.3. These selections will feed the bass signal below 120Hz to different speakers as described below.

Rear left and right speakers should be placed behind your listening

position and above ear level.

If speaker placement is restricted due to the physical environment

of the room, delay calibration is sometimes necessary to achieve

the ideal listening environment.

If the centre speaker can only be placed nearer to you than the left

and right speakers, sound from the centre speaker will arrive

before the sound from the left and right speakers. The difference in

arrival time could may affect the sound quality and effect. Your

AEGOP5 allows you to adjust the speaker time delay to compensate

Delay Calibration

Press DELAY Button and repeat to select the length of delay time for SL/SR/C channels.

The delay range for SL/SR is 0 to 15 ms and 0 to 5 ms for centre.

Adjust the delay time on selected channel by pressing D TIME + or D TIME - on the remote control.

With this setting, the bass signal below 120Hz will be sent to the subwoofer; the LEDs on the front panel indicating SW will be red, and the LCD will show the following:

DOLBY DIGITAL CO

Bass Config.2

With this setting, the bass signal below 120Hz will be sent to front left and right speakers and the subwoofer; the LEDs on the front panel indicating L/R/SW will be red, and the LCD will show the following

for this problem by increasing the delay time for the centre channel.

Thus sound from the centre, left and right speakers will reach you

at the same time. If your centre speaker is closer to your listening

position than the left and right speakers, press DELAY button

repeatedly until the centre channel is selected. To increase or

decrease the delay time, press D TIME + or D TIME - until the

desired delay is selected. The same procedure can be applied to

adjust the delay time of rear surround speakers if necessary.

Delay calibration for the rear surround

speakers may be necessary if the surround speakers are placed quite close to your listening position. To correct the delay this may cause, press the DELAY button repeatedly until SL or SR appear on the display. Increase the time delay of the surround speakers by pressing D TIME + until you are able to hear a 3D sound effect coming from surround speakers.

Press DELAY Button again to move to the next channel.
