Subwoofer Setup - Rotel RSP-1580 Manual De Instrucciones

English
the LFE channel in any way. The OFF setting (available only for the
subwoofer) sends a full-range signal to your subwoofer so that you can
use its built-in low-pass filter.
Note: When a speaker is set to LARGE on the SPEAKER SETUP menu or
on this menu, the crossover setting is not available since, by definition,
a LARGE speaker plays full-range with no bass redirection to the
subwoofer and no crossover. Likewise, the OFF setting for the subwoofer
crossover is not available for SMALL speakers, since SMALL means that
the speaker will redirect its bass below a given crossover point to the
subwoofer. In addition, the CROSSOVER setting is not available for the
MULTI INPUT.
DOLBY (large/small/none): Sets the current speaker (shown in the first
line) to LARGE, SMALL, or NONE, overriding the master setting from
the SPEAKER SETUP menu. This setting will ONLY take effect with Dolby
Digital or Dolby Pro Logic II decoding.
DTS (large/small/none): The same options described for Dolby above,
except these settings ONLY take effect with DTS and DTS Neo:6
decoding.
STEREO (large/small/none): The same options described for Dolby above,
except these settings ONLY take effect in STEREO surround mode.
DSP (large/small/none): The same options described for Dolby above,
except these settings ONLY take effect with any of the DSP MUSIC
surround modes.
Note: When the front speakers are set to use the master crossover
frequency on the Advanced Speaker Setup menu, the surround mode
specific "large/small/none" settings are not available for the other
speakers. These speakers will use the setting determined in the basic
Speaker Setup menu.

The SUBWOOFER SETUP menu allows selection of the master subwoofer
crossover frequency and independent adjustment of subwoofer level for
each surround mode.
CROSSOVER (40Hz/60Hz/80Hz/100Hz/120Hz/150Hz/200Hz/OFF):
This setting specifies a master low-pass filter for the subwoofer and a
corresponding high-pass filter for all SMALL speakers in the system at
the selected frequency. To adjust the crossover frequency, highlight the
CROSSOVER line using the Up/Down buttons. Then, use the Left/Right
buttons to choose the master crossover point. The 80Hz or 100Hz crossover
points are the most common in home theater systems and should be used

unless you have a specific reason to choose a different crossover point
based on your specific speakers.
The OFF setting sends a full-range signal to your subwoofer so that you
can use its built-in low-pass filter. With the OFF setting, a 100Hz high-
pass filter is activated for all SMALL speakers in the system.
Note: The master crossover point can be overridden with a custom
crossover frequency for the front, center, surround, or surround back
speakers in the ADVANCED SPEAKER SETUP menu; however, in most
systems the single master crossover point should work well

These seven lines allow you to override the master subwoofer level setting
as determined on the TEST TONE menu (see next section) for each specific
surround mode. When going to the SUBWOOFER SETUP menu from the
MAIN menu, the current surround mode is automatically highlighted. Use
the </> buttons to adjust the subwoofer level for the current surround
mode. The options are OFF (which turns off the subwoofer for that mode)
and a range of adjustments from -9dB to +9dB and MAX (+10dB). A
setting of 0dB means that the specified surround mode will use the master
subwoofer level. Any other setting is an offset to the master setting. For
example, an adjustment of -2dB for a particular surround mode means
that the subwoofer level will be 2dB quieter than the master subwoofer
level when that surround mode is selected. Use these subwoofer level
settings to adjust the relative bass output of various surround modes.
Changing the master subwoofer level will increase or decrease the level
for all surround modes.
Note: Only the current surround mode can be adjusted on this menu.
You will need to change surround modes using the front panel or remote
buttons to adjust a different mode.
We recommend starting with the settings for all surround modes at the
default 0dB setting during the test tone calibration of the system and for
a period of familiarization after that. As you listen to a variety of source
material over time, you may notice that certain surround modes consistently
produce too much or too little bass from the subwoofer . If so, then use
these menu settings to customize each surround mode. In general, if
the master subwoofer level is set properly (i.e. not too loud), individual
settings for each surround mode should not be necessary.
Note: In Dolby Digital and DTS recordings, the LFE channel is used to
produce spectacular low bass effects, placing considerable demands on
your subwoofer system. If you hear distortion or other signs of distress
from your subwoofer at loud listening levels, you may consider reducing
the subwoofer level for the Dolby Digital and/or DTS surround modes.
In other surround modes, there is no LFE channel and the subwoofer will
only reproduce redirected bass from the other channels, which is not as
likely to tax the subwoofer.
To return to the MAIN menu, press the ENT (SEL) button. Press the MENU/
OSD button on the remote to cancel the menu display and return to
normal operation.
