An A/V 80Hz high pass filter switch provides instant conversion to 5.1 and higher order systems where a separate subwoofer 3.4: USER CONTROLS below 80Hz is required. Filter characteristics are according to the international standards for this setup. This response is also shown diagramatically in Figure 1. A/V (80Hz): a switch to the bottom left of the bank of DIP switches sets the system high pass filter to either flat or –6dB at 80Hz. The 80Hz setting is used when the speakers are in combin

Quarter Space (Pi): An example of quarter space would be with speakers mounted on stands in a corner, or on the meter Notes bridge against a wall or mounted on small stands or shelves against a wall. Also typical PC/Mac editing in a confined space on a desk near a wall. This is usually also a close field situation. Follow the DIP settings below for Quarter Space and adjust for the listening distance accordingly. Adjust the LF-Q settings to balance the system. 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

MID AND HIGH EQ SETTINGS RT60 Decay Time: An estimation of the RT60 decay time above 1kHz within the monitoring environment will help to set the mid and high frequency equalisation. Hard surfaces in general and particularly if close to the speakers will increase the amount of reverberent energy to direct energy above 1kHz (RT60 above 500mS) and may justify setting the mid or high EQ (or both) to -1dB. Absorbent surfaces in general and particularly if close to the speakers (RT60 below 200mS) wi

The speaker axis (shown on the diagram) should be aimed at the halfway point between your furthest forward and the furthest back listening positions (as indicated by the two heads on the diagram). This is typically a range of about 24" (600mm).
