USING THE DSP8000
LOUDSPEAKERS
Changing the listening position
The balance control of the DSP8000 loudspeakers uses digital signal
processing to compensate for an off-centre listening position by delaying
and diminishing the sound in one speaker, thus effectively shifting the
speaker’s image back.
The axis control allows you to adjust the optimum listening height of the
DSP8000 loudspeakers, like a balance control operating in the vertical
plane.
To change the balance
• Press
< or > on the remote until the display shows the current balance.
For example:
Bal. <0>
• Press A or V to change the balance.
The display shows the direction and position of the listening position.
For example:
Bal. 12>
There are 32 steps in each direction.
To change the axis
• Press
< or > on the remote until the display shows the current axis
setting.
For example:
Axis -1
• Press A or V to change the axis.
The axis can be adjusted between 3 and -2, where 0 corresponds to the axis
of the treble unit. Usually a listener will be below that position, so we
recommend settings of -1 or -2.
To restore flat settings
• Press Clear on the remote.
The display shows:
Reset
This restores the balance, axis, tilt, and bass to zero.
