Speaker settings page
The size and number of loudspeakers are defi ned on this page
of the OSD.
– A ‘LARGE’ speaker is one that is capable of handling a full
range signal (i.e. 20Hz–20kHz).
– A ‘SMALL’ speaker is one that is not capable of
reproducing a deep bass signal (i.e. below 100Hz), for
example a satellite speaker.
– ‘ON’ is used when a speaker is active and receives the
intended audio information.
– ‘OFF’ is used when a speaker is inactive. Audio signals
intended for speakers set to OFF are redirected to the
main speakers.
Presets for typical speaker setups
To make setting up easier, the Arcam AVR100 has three factory
presets, describing three typical home theatre speaker setups.
Choose the preset that closest describes the loudspeaker
package you have.
■
PRESET 1 – all large speakers and a subwoofer.
This preset is designed to play a full range signal through
each speaker. A subwoofer supports low frequency sound
reproduction
■
PRESET 2 – large front left and right speakers, small
centre and small rear speakers.
This preset is designed to redirect the low frequency
information for the surround and centre channels to the
main speakers. There is no subwoofer output with this
preset.
■
PRESET 3 – all small speakers and a subwoofer.
This preset is designed for systems with fi ve small
speakers combined with a subwoofer. The bass
frequencies from all channels are redirected to the
subwoofer.
Once you have chosen the preset that best describes your
loudspeaker package you can set the centre and surround
speakers to ‘OFF’ if you do not have these in your system.
No subwoofer loudspeaker?
Regardless of the size of your main speakers, if you do not
have a subwoofer connected to your AVR100 you should select
PRESET 2 , to direct low frequency information to the main
speakers.
