SPEAKERS TAB
The Speakers Tab is divided into the following sections:
Speaker Configuration lets you test speaker operation and select speaker configuration modes.
Volume sets the master volume and individual speaker volumes.
Settings Summary indicates the status of important control panel settings.
S/PDIF Settings sets the digital output configurations and selects the Dolby Digital Live feature.
When S/PDIF Out is enabled, the analog speaker outputs are disabled.
SPEAKER OPTIONS BUTTON (…)
The Speaker Options button, located to the right of the speaker configuration pull-down menu, will only
appear in 4, 5.1, and 7.1 channel speaker configurations. Clicking this button activates the Speaker Options
dialog with the following settings:
Multi-channel to Subwoofer: When this option is checked, a sub-
mix of all channels is sent to the Sub-woofer output. This feature
should be enabled when listening to a stereo source with multi-
speakers so the bass signals from the stereo source will be routed to
the LFE output. When playing a DVD with 5.1 channel output, this
option should be disabled, since the DVD 5.1 signal includes a
separate sub-woofer channel and a sub-mix is not necessary.
Center/Bass Swap: When this option is checked, the Center and
Bass output channels are swapped. This feature is useful when using 5.1 and 7.1 speaker systems
with center/LFE stereo jacks that do not match the configuration of the Montego‘s center/LFE
output jack.
Surround/Rear Output Swap: When this option is checked, the Surround and Rear speaker
channels are swapped.
