This menu point opens a sub-menu in which the settings for the audio inputs
can be altered.
Some TV sets are fitted with digital electrical (co-ax) or optical (TOSLINK)
outputs. It is possible to use the K2 Blu with such equipment by assigning an
optical (DIG IN 1) or electrical (DIG IN 2) digital input to the K2 Blu's TV input
instead of the analogue sound input (TV IN). In this case the K2 Blu accepts
and processes the digital stereo signal (PCM signal) from the source device
instead of the analogue signal.
Here you can select the input to match your TV set.
If a digital input (e.g. DIG IN 1) is assigned to the TV source, then that input is
no longer available as a separate source.
This menu point enables you to switch on the automatic power-on function for
the TV input of the K2 Blu.
If this function is switched on, the K2 Blu automatically switches itself on from
stand-by mode, and switches to the TV source (if necessary), when a music
signal is present at the TV IN, DIG IN 1 or DIG IN 2 input - depending on the
input to which the TV source is assigned (see above).
If the K2 Blu is switched on, but no signal is detected at the TV input within
about twenty minutes, then the K2 Blu automatically switches itself off again;
however this only occurs if the TV source is selected.
In this mode of operation the volume control for the TV source is separate, i.e.
the volume level for this source is stored separately, and only changes when
the TV source is selected.
This makes it possible to pre-set a fixed volume at the K2 Blu, and to control
the volume using the TV set connected to the system.
Of course, the volume can also be controlled using the K2 Blu, and the TV set
left at a fixed level.
The automatic TV power-on function is only supported if 'Comfort Standby' is
switched on in the System menu.
This menu point opens a sub-menu in which the settings for the loudspeakers
can be altered.
In this menu point you can set the loudspeaker type and, if appropriate, the
cross-over frequency between the main loudspeakers (loudspeaker group A -
left / right) and the sub-woofer.
If you are using full-range loudspeakers, please choose the "FULL RANGE"
setting. For relatively small satellite speakers we suggest that you choose a
cross-over frequency of 40Hz, 60Hz, 100Hz or 150Hz, depending on the size
and bass performance of your loudspeakers.
This is the basic rule: the smaller the speaker cabinet, the higher the cross-over
frequency should be. If no sub-woofer is present in the system, you should
always select the "FULL RANGE" setting in any case.
The "Bass extd." setting is recommended for small loudspeakers such as small
bookshelf units, if they are operated without a sub-woofer. At this setting the
bass range of the speaker is extended to low frequencies.
