Sub/full range+sat system
This is a surround-sound system (such as Arcam’s
Solo Movie 5.1) where full range L and R speakers
are combined with satellite (or with full range) rear			LS	RS
speakers.The system should be connected with		PRE OUT SUB
both the Sub, Subwoofer or LFE output connected to		PRE OUT RIGHT
		PRE OUT LEFT
IN LFE and Left/Right preamplifier outputs attached to
IN L/IN R on Logo.
In such systems, Logo can be set up to work with two
crossover frequencies. One frequency is set up for the
rear speakers using the surround amplifier crossover,			L
and one frequency for the full range Left and Right
			C	R
speakers, using the Logo crossover.	IN R	IN L

Direct mode in Arcam surround amplifiers

Stereo system with no LFE

This is a typical two-channel system (such as Arcam’s Solo). Logo is connected to L/R preamplifier outputs. The crossover frequency on Logo should be adjusted to the low frequency roll off of the main speakers (see the manual for your speakers for this information).The Q-control (X-OVER Q) can be used to fine-tune the integration of Logo and your main speakers.

If you wish to have your system set up to use the crossover in the surround amplifier for 5.1 or 7.1 material, but use Left and Right full range speakers with Logo filling in for two-channel material, you can use Direct mode.

Connect the amplifier and Logo as in the Sub/full range+sat system diagram. In the amplifier, set up all speakers to ‘Small’; this redirects bass to Logo via the LFE channel.To use the system’s full range, activate ‘Direct mode’ for two-channel sources.This sends the full range signals to the Left and Right speakers and use the IN L/IN R inputs to Logo via its own crossover.

Sub/sat system

This is a surround-sound system (such as Arcam’s
Solo Movie 5.1) where all the main speakers are
satellite speakers, defined as ‘Small’. Logo is connected
to output marked Sub, Subwoofer or LFE.	PRE OUT SUB

The LFE input bypasses the crossover in Logo, so the crossover frequency should be set by the surround sound amplifier. For the crossover setting, please see the response of your satellite speakers which may vary from around 70Hz for large satellites, to 150Hz for small satellites.We recommend 80Hz as a starting point if you are unsure.
