CONFIGURING THE
DIGITAL SURROUND
CONTROLLER
Calibrating the system
To help you to set up your installation to give the best possible sound with
any particular combination of associated equipment, the 861 Reference
Digital Surround Controller includes a built-in calibration procedure.
This calibration procedure uses test signals to present a series of sounds,
which you use to adjust certain aspects of the system to their optimum
settings.
You should work through the calibration procedure the fi rst time you set
up your surround sound system, and whenever you want to check the
calibration, such as after changing the layout of your room.
Using the calibration procedure
We recommend that you perform the calibration procedure using the
MSR+ and from the listening position.
As you run the calibration procedure the name of each calibration test is
shown on the front-panel display, followed by the parameters adjusted in
the test.
If your digital surround controller is fi tted with a video card, and you have
a video source connected, the on-screen display also provides additional
text explaining what to do.
Each calibration test uses a test signal designed to give the best results.
Using a Sound Pressure Level meter
Although you can perform the calibration procedure by ear, it is
recommended that you perform the tests using a Sound Pressure Level
meter, available fairly cheaply from Tandy/Radio Shack, or your Meridian
dealer may be able to lend you one.
Set the Sound Pressure Level meter to C weighted, 80dB range, and slow
response. Take readings with the meter at the listening position, pointing
vertically. You should hold the meter with an outstretched arm to minimise
refl ections from your body.
To start the calibration procedure
Put the digital surround controller into standby by pressing Off (front
panel or remote).
Press and hold the Calibrate key, under the front panel, for at least fi ve
seconds.
