EN FINE TUNING Advantages of tuning from the listening position Subwoofer levels can be set for each channel independently to compensate for room acoustics or placement anomalies. For example, if one speaker is placed closer to a wall or corner than the other, it will probably have greater bass output due to boundary reinforcement. Realizing consistent bass output between two speakers in a stereo pair makes an enormous difference in timbre and imaging accuracy. Fine Adjustment Now switch back to a stereo recording and use the Stereo Bass control to make your final adjustment (you will probably want to turn the bass level down a bit). As you make settings adjustments, the white LEDs on the front of the towers light up to indicate the setting value and then turn off a few seconds later. 1. Sit in your favorite listening position with remote in hand. 2. Play a piece of music you are very familiar with that has good deep bass content. 3. Using the Stereo Bass control on the remote, adjust the volume up or down to taste. The bass should have impact without sounding too "heavy." 17 1.800.228.7148 www.definitivetech.com

FINE TUNING
ADVANTAGES OF TUNING FROM THE LISTENING POSITION
Subwoofer levels can be set for each channel independently to compensate for room acoustics or placement anomalies. For example, if one
speaker is placed closer to a wall or corner than the other, it will probably have greater bass output due to boundary reinforcement. Realizing
consistent bass output between two speakers in a stereo pair makes an enormous difference in timbre and imaging accuracy.
FINE ADJUSTMENT
Now switch back to a stereo recording and use the Stereo Bass control to make your final adjustment (you will probably want to turn the bass
level down a bit). As you make settings adjustments, the white LEDs on the front of the towers light up to indicate the setting value and then
turn off a few seconds later.
1.
Sit in your favorite listening position with remote in hand.
2.
Play a piece of music you are very familiar with that has good deep bass content.
3.
Using the Stereo Bass control on the remote, adjust the volume up or down to taste.
The bass should have impact without sounding too “heavy.”
