Calibrating the system
37
Main
This test allows you to set the relative phase and the relative
delay between the left and right main speakers.
The Low test signal is now presented equally and in phase on
just the left and right main speakers; see Test signals, page 44,
for details of the signals.
● Use
> and < to switch between phase and delay.
When setting phase the display shows the absolute phase of the
left speaker.
For example:
Left Phs +
● Use
A and V to change the phase.
Choose the correct setting as follows:
Setting What it sounds like
Correct A centrally focused sound image which
remains stable as you move your head.
Incorrect An uncomfortable, phasey, diffused
image which appears to come from
behind you, and which changes
dramatically as you move your head.
Unless there is a wiring error in one of the speakers, or an
incorrect setting in Speaker Set, the correct setting should be
Phs +.
You should not adjust the delay as this has already been
specified when you time-aligned the layout.
