FOUR CONFIGURATIONS
One speaker configuration is normally suitable but alternate sets of bass management,
listening position, level calibration, and ARC equalization values can be entered and stored.
This can be useful if your installation varies according to sound-altering characteristics such
as screen up vs down, door open vs closed, or with subwoofer vs without.

PROFILE NAME
Using the navigation keys and volume knob each profile can be renamed, up to 8 characters
long. When finished, press Select but note that the profile name is best set in Anthem Room
Correction (Targets panel) because during file upload the name in the menu is overwritten by
the one in ARC.
SUBWOOFER / CENTER / SURROUND etc.
If using Anthem Room Correction, these items will be set during measurement. Set to "On"
if you are using these speakers, "Off" if you are not. This is an important step so no sounds
go missing because by setting unavailable channels to "Off", the sound that would have
come from those speakers is rerouted to available speakers.
The subwoofer plays two things, LFE (Low Frequency Effects) channel in multichannel
soundtracks and bass from remaining channels using the crossover. Some people prefer
to play music through a system that does not use a subwoofer though it should be
noted that the reason often cited is that the subwoofer does not blend well with the main
speakers. In contrast, Anthem Room Correction excels in integrating the subwoofer with
the main speakers, so in this case using a subwoofer is recommended for all sources. The
subwoofer normally plays bass that is louder, deeper, and less distorted than that of a full-
range speaker, and it uses its own amplifier.
