Using Multi-Channel SACD or DVD-Audio with
your Mythos STS
Because of the nature of their bass management systems, a multi-channel
SACD player or DVD-Audio player (or any other format that requires using
6-channel interconnects) requires the use of an LFE connection between your
receiver or processor and your Mythos STS. If you are using one of these players,
please use the connection method outlined in the “Connecting the Low Frequency
Effects (LFE) Channel” section.
Surround Channel Hook-Up
If you are using the Mythos STS as side/rear surround speakers, hook up the
left surround red (+) terminal of your receiver or amplifier to the red (+) terminal
of your left surround speaker and the left surround black (-) terminal of your
receiver or amplifier to the black(-) terminal of your left surround speaker.
Connect the right surround red (+) terminal of your amplifier or receiver to the
VERY IMPORTANT: Setting Bass Management and
Channel Balance
Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel systems have critical channel
balance and bass management procedures which must be followed if the
system is to perform properly. We have spoken with many users with system
sound problems which could be clearly traced back to improper system
balance and bass management set-up. Consult your receiver’s or processor’s
manual to learn how to access your system set up menus. If you have
connected the LFE output of your receiver or processor to the LFE input of
the Mythos STS, using the Speaker Set Up (or bass management) menu set
the front left speakers as “Large” and subwoofer as “Yes.” If you have
connected the speakers using only speaker wire, set the front speakers as
“Large” and subwoofer as “No.”
If you have a Definitive center channel with a built-in powered subwoofer
or other full range center channel, set your receiver’s Speaker Set Up center
channel setting to “Large” (although you should experiment with this to see
what sounds best in your specific system). For almost every other center
channel speaker set it as “Small.” If you are using large rear surround
speakers with very extended low frequency response such as a large
Definitive floor-standing system or one with a built-in powered subwoofer,
set the rear channels of your decoder’s bass management system to “Large.”
If you are using medium to small-sized center and surr
ound speakers, set
them to “Small.”
Use the Speaker Level menu in your receiver or processor to set each
channel in the system to the same volume level. While you can get decent
results doing this by ear, it is best to use an inexpensive Sound Pressure
(SPL) meter to get perfect channel to channel balance. Some new receivers
and processors have Auto Set Up functions that use a supplied microphone
to set levels.
