Configuring the digital surround processor using a computer
As you change the options the layout illustration will change to
show the resulting layout.
If you select a combination of options that is not supported, the
other options will be adjusted accordingly to ensure that the
whole configuration is valid.
For example, if you specify Two rears and two sides, and then
select two subwoofers, the side speakers will be removed to
allow you to have the subwoofers.
If you specify 96.24 DSP for the left, right, and centre speakers,
an additional Meridian High Resolution setup option allows you
to specify when to use Meridian High Resolution; see Changing
the setup options, page 96.
The options available for the Mains, Centre, Surrounds, and
Subwoofers drop-down menus are explained in the following
sections.
Mains
Use the Mains drop-down menu to specify the size and type of
the main Speakers.
Choose Large if your main left and right speakers are large,
with good bass performance, and you want to use them for
full range reproduction.
Choose Small if your main left and right speakers do not have
a good bass response and you want to use one or more
subwoofers to handle the bass for the system.
Choose analogue DSP or 96.24 DSP according to the type of
each speaker.
