LW, RW, LFE, LS, RS, LRS and RRS) and for a 3D experience like Dolby Atmos audio effects are added as “objects” specified by their 3D coordinates in the room. Lyngdorf Audio multi-channel processors (MP) are featuring 16 outputs for amplifiers and speakers: The 12 are fixed and designated to the basic 7.1.4 channel configuration plus 4 auxiliary outputs, which are designated to speakers and subwoofers defined in the Setup Menu.

Initial Setup Considerations In order to get the optimal surround sound performance from your processor, you should consider, which audio format and post processing you want to perfect. In general minimum 5 low-level speakers must be installed, before you can add high-level speakers for a 3D surround sound experience.
If you want to add TWO high-level speakers in order to improve the 3D performance, you MUST specify these as Left and Right Top Middles (LTM-RTM). This will ensure that all the audio designed to be over your head will be routed correctly. Position of these speakers should be according to Dolby’s recommendations for optimal performance.
Channel Specification Speaker Size / Bass Cutoff Frequency For all the speakers in the system, a size must be chosen. The speaker size informs the system how much bass the speaker can play by selecting a cutoff frequency. Signals below this frequency will then be redirected to another speaker or subwoofer in the system.
If the redirected bass will be played by a subwoofer, you should also make sure that the cutoff frequency is lower than the highest frequency the subwoofer can play. The system can only redirect bass to XXL speakers placed at the Left Front/Right Front, Left Surround/Right Surround, and Left Rear Surround/Right Rear Surround positions.
Note: The menu Channel Gains will reveal the gain settings from the RoomPerfect™ calibration, and you will be able to adjust the gain/level for each channel related to the type of audio decoded. Amplifier Delay The objective with this setting is to easily adjust for differences in delays through the connected amplifiers.
Dolby-enabled speakers For Dolby Atmos setups, it is possible to add Dolby-enabled speakers instead of using top speakers mounted in the ceiling. If you have Dolby-enabled speakers on top of your front and surround speakers, go to the settings for these speakers and activate the Dolby-enabled speaker option, and then select the corresponding size.
Verify speakers This menu allows you to do check the connections of speakers and amplifiers to the correct outputs of the processor. Adjust Sub As the subwoofers are handling the bass information from multiple speaker channels, it is essential that the subwoofer(s) are aligned with each other and with the relevant speaker channels.
Appendix / Assignment of speakers to bass positions When XXL or front/rear subwoofers are used, the redirected bass from speakers will be distributed to the left or right side. When REAR subwoofers or XXL surround or rear speakers are involved, it will also be distributed between front and rear.

Appendix / Comments on physical positioning of speakers and subwoofers In order to have the optimal performance of your system you should position loudspeakers according to the latest guidelines from Dolby or Auro. https://www.dolby.com/about/support/guide/speaker-setup-guides/ https://www.auro-3d.com/wp-content/uploads/documents/Auro-3D-Home-Theater-Setup- Guidelines_lores.pdf As your multi-channel processor features the RoomPerfect™ calibration, you have more alternatives than with traditional calibrations: Position normal box-speakers up against the walls This position will offer a better time-response (tighter bass) with the trade-off on the...
