A) Adjusting the Subwoofer
Unlike the normal passive
speakers that are connected to
the M51 speaker outputs, active
subwoofers have their own
volume control.
To set the correct basic volume,
you should first bring the
subwoofer level to the neutral
mid-position with the Reset key.
Then you should adjust the
volume at the subwoofer itself to
suit your listening position.
The right basic volume setting
for the subwoofer is achieved
when the subwoofer doesn’t
dominate the sound picture but
nevertheless gives a sustained
support to the bass tone ranges.
Tip: Automatic switch-on
Many active subwoofers have a
function that automatically switches
the subwoofer on as soon as there
is a bass signal with a particular
level.
If your subwoofer doesn’t switch on
automatically at normal room
volume levels, because the bass
signal is too low, you could
increase the level on the subwoofer
output through the amplifier menu,
until the auto switch-on function is
activated. After this, of course, the
volume at the subwoofer must be
adjusted again.
Resetting the level
Level settings can be reset to
the neutral mid-position with the
Reset key.
L
Speakers, like the Center in the
above example, which are
deactivated in the basic
settings, are identified by the
text -Not Used-.
The basic volume setting for all
speakers is set through the
Setup Adjusting volume menu.
