Listening presets
Select the speakers to be activated in TV
mode and, if you have connected a
projector, in Cinema mode. You can also
make up to five customised listening
presets, such as at the dining table or in
a favourite armchair. Select three to
seven* speakers and up to two
subwoofers to be activated for a preset
and determine the distance from your
listening position to three of the
activated speakers.
For each customised listening preset it is
also possible to rotate the perceived
sound 360 degrees around the listening
position. The default rotation is 0 degrees
which is the direction from your listening
position to the television.
If your speakers are placed correctly for
your listening positions, it is recommended
that you disable Adaptive Sound
Technology and set the speaker roles,
distances and levels. If you activate
fewer than three speakers, you must set
the speaker roles, distances and levels.
For further information about speaker
roles, distances and levels, see page 23–25.
*A stereo speaker such as a BeoLab 7-1 or 7-2
counts as two speakers if fewer than six
speakers are activated.
The distance from your listening position to
any speaker in a listening preset should not
exceed 10 metres.
