X-Curve Most soundtracks mixed for cinema sound too bright when played back in large rooms. The X-Curve setting acts as a kind of re-equalization for home theater listening, and restores proper tonal balance of movie soundtracks. 78 En Since the principal is the same, X-Curve isn't applied when you're using any of the Home THX, Pure direct or Optimum surround modes. 1 Select 'X-Curve' from the Manual SP Setup menu. 2 Choose the X-Curve setting you want. Use k/l to adjust the setting. The X-Curve is expressed as a downwards slope in decibels per octave, starting at 2 kHz. The sound becomes less bright as the slope increases (to a maximum of -3.0dB/oct). Use the following guidelines to set the X-Curve according to your room size: Room size (ft2) ≤400 ≤550 ≤650 ≤800 ≤2200 ≤12000 X-Curve (dB/oct) -0.5 -1.0 -1.5 -2.0 -2.5 -3.0 !
