DMS-AV HOME THEATER AMPLIFIER On Screen Display (OSD) Format The DMS-AV on-screen Display allows for the complete system setup of the DMS-AV, when using in an application that does not include a URC DMS Multi Zone Audio System. Momentary OSD On-screen display information, such as volume level and input name can be disabled, if desired. Within the System Setup section of the on-screen display, or within the URC Accelerator PC Application, set this feature to "Off", if desired. Software Setup - URC Accelerator URC Accelerator is the advanced PC application used to configure the DMS-AV, the appropriate user interface remote control, and integration with URC DMS Multi Zone amplifiers. Contact your URC representative to acquire the URC Accelerator PC Application. DMS-AV System Settings - Audio Speaker Size/Speaker Crossover Speaker size refers to the frequency range a speaker can handle. Audio material, particularly Dolby Digital and DTS movies, often contain large amounts of bass. If this bass information is sent to small speakers that are incapable of reproducing bass, then this information will be lost or distorted. Too much bass may damage small speakers. By configuring the DMS-AV for the correct type of speaker crossover, all bass information will be appropriately routed to the speakers that are best able to reproduce it correctly. Typically bookshelf or satellite speakers are considered Small. Smaller floor standing speakers with a single 8" or less woofer should also be considered Small. Floor standing speakers with 10" or larger woofers, or multiple smaller woofers may be considered Large. These are general guidelines only if you are unsure, please consult your speaker manufacturer or dealer. If using large speakers, the system may not require a subwoofer, however better results may still be obtained with the use of a subwoofer. Even with speakers that are capable of reproducing deep bass, better overall bass response may be obtained by setting a crossover frequency for these speakers. This allows bass to be reproduced from a single point (the subwoofer), and avoids the possibility of phase cancellation which may occur when bass is reproduced from multiple speakers simultaneously.
