To calibrate the PANORAMA listening mode:
1. Remove all obstructions between the speakers and the primary
listening position.
2. Make sure the distances between the speakers and the primary
listening position are properly measured. To do this, select one
of the following options.
• Select the AUTO SPEAKER SETUP menu DISTANCES option to
have the RV-8 automatically calibrate speaker distances.
• Measure the distance between the primary listening posi-
tion and the front baffle of each speaker. Then, set the cor-
responding SPEAKER DISTANCES menu parameters to the
closest available value.
3. Sit in the primary listening position. If the primary listening
position is not centered between the front left and right
speakers as shown in illustration B (above), set the PANORAMA
CALIBRATION
LISTENER POS parameter to compensate for
the difference using the remote control and arrow
buttons. Each increment within the –127 to +127 parameter
range represents about one-third of an inch. The Left illus-
tration shows the left-of-center position. The Right illustration
shows the right- of-center position
4. Set the SOURCE parameter to RIGHT.
5. Begin playback of the external calibration source.
6. When playback of the external calibration source is in progress,
set the SPEAKER ANGLE parameter so the sound is not heard in
the right ear.
7. To confirm the LISTENER POS and SPEAKER ANGLE parameter
settings, set the SOURCE parameter to LEFT & RIGHT. If the
PANORAMA listening mode is properly calibrated, the sound
should be perceived to come from all around the primary
listening position. If not, go back to Step 1 and repeat the
calibration procedure.
