USING THE DSP

LOUDSPEAKERS

Changing the treble, bass, or phase

The DSP loudspeakers provide sophisticated treble and bass controls, to allow you to adjust the broad balance of the system to correct for the

acoustics of your listening room, or for a misbalanced recording.

If you have a

Meridian Surround Controller

these functions are performed

via the sound controller.

The controls are more subtle than conventional tone controls, and take advantage of digital signal processing techniques to provide a more natural adjustment of the

frequency response.

You can also change the absolute phase of the signal, to compensate for signals which are out of phase, giving an unnatural-sounding bass.

To change the treble

¥Press Function < or Function > until the display shows the current treble.

For example:

Tre.+0.0

¥Press Function A or Function V to change the treble.

The treble control tilts the frequency of the response over the entire frequency range to make the sound brighter or dimmer. It can be adjusted between ±10db in 0.5dB steps. Normally settings between +1.0 and -2.0 will give the most natural results.

To change the bass

¥Press Function < or Function > until the display shows the current bass setting.

For example:

Bass+0.0

¥Press Function A or Function V to change the bass.

The bass control allows you to adjust the bass response in the room by ±5dB in 0.5dB steps. Normally settings between +3.0 and -2.0 will give the most natural results.

To change the absolute phase

¥ Press Function > or Function < until the display shows the current phase.

For example:

Phase +

¥ Press Function A or Function V to change the phase.
