Verify Speakers
SETUP>Speakers & room>Verify speakers
Select “Verify speakers” to step through each
connected speaker. Sound should be heard from
the current speaker. Select “Next” or “Previous” to
cycle through available speakers.
Adjust Subwoofer Level
SETUP>Speakers & room>Adjust Sub
The Adjust Sub menu is a tool for setting the level
for an attached subwoofer. It will compare the
level of the Front Left speaker and the subwoofer.
It will then suggest changes to make on the level
adjustment for a powered sub.
To use this tool, attach the included microphone and
cable to the MIC jack in the rear of the MX180 and
position the microphone in the primary listening
location. Select start and follow the prompts.
It is advisable to perform the sub adjustments prior
to using RoomPerfect™. RoomPerfect™ will
perform ne tuning of your system, but it is better to
manually set your preferred overall subwoofer level
as opposed to using equalization to accomplish this.
RoomPerfect™
RoomPerfect™ is an advanced calibration and
adjustment system that will get the most out of your
system. For setup instruction see “RoomPerfect™
Setup” on page 25.
Channel Gain
SETUP>Speakers & room>Channel gain
Channel gain allows for full range (20Hz-20kHz)
adjustments of gain by channel. Changes can be
made for each saved RoomPerfect™ setting
including Global and Bypass.
Choose “Edit” to make changes
Choose the RoomPerfect™ settings you wish
to adjust
Settings can be changed for Dolby Atmos/
DTS and for Auro signals
Choose “Save” to keep the new settings or
cancel to lose your changes
If you wish to make gain adjustments that are not
full range (so as to not eect a sub playing that
channel for instance), use Speaker Setup (page
14) instead.
Audio Setup
The Audio setup menu consists of two sub menus:
Audio Processing and Voicing setup.
