Centre-Channel Options - Meridian DSP5500 User Manual

Sub.1
Sub.2
Note Selecting a subwoofer option gives the same performance as the
free space setting. These options are only provided on DSP5500 for
compatibility with DSP5000. Do not use them unless one or more of the
slave speakers is a DSP5000.

Centre-channel options

The following two adjustments will appear on the master if the 'Cen.y'
option is selected in Config or if the speaker has been set to Type 6. It
appears on the master – whether or not it is a centre. A DSP5000C (or
other Meridian Digital loudspeaker) which is configured as a centre
responds to these menu settings.
Using the centre boundary control
The centre boundary control is like the system boundary control, but it can
be operated independently of other speakers in the system.
To change the centre boundary setting:
1. Press the w or e menu key until the centre boundary display shows.
The master display will momentarily show the centre equivalent of the
system 'FrEE' setting:
C.FrE.
2. Press either the n or s menu key. Choose from:
C.bou. equivalent to the system 'boun.' setting.
C.Sb1 equivalent to the system 'Sub.1' setting
C.Sb2 equivalent to the system 'Sub.2' setting
C.Cor. equivalent to the system 'Corn.' setting.
Using the centre tilt-offset control
The centre tilt-offset allows the centre to be permanently dimmer or
brighter in balance to the other speakers (or 565 decoder outputs) in a
system. It is intended to help you match the sound of the centre to the left
and right main pair.
To change the centre tilt-offset:
1. Press the w or e menu key until the centre tilt-offset display shows.
The master display will momentarily show
C.t. 0
2. Press either the n or s menu key.
While listening to the system make a choice between ±9dB. A normal
choice should be in the range ±3dB. For further details of using this
setting in a surround system, see the Meridian 565 user manual.
Note When customisation is complete, switch the power off, wait for 3
seconds, then switch it on again to restore normal operation and to save
what you have done.
Storing settings
To store the current settings, get into a bass, tilt, axis or phase cursor by
1. Pressing the w or e menu key until a cursor display appears
2. While this display is up, pressing Store
