First Steps
The following provides a short overview of the first steps and their order to setup the
MAP V2. For any detailed description please refer to the sections 'Usage front panel'
and 'Audionet System Remote Control Harmony 785'.
After connecting your MAP V2 to the other components of your Hifi or Home Cinema
system (refer to section 'Audio / Video connections'), some setup options have to be
configured. Your MAP V2 needs information about the number of speakers, their
distances from the listening position and sensitivity to work with optimum performance.
The setup procedure is quite easy if you stick to the following order:
1. Number and size of speakers: Use key Bass Manager
(refer to chapters 'Remote control' and 'Setup')
Select what kind of speakers you are using. Large refers to speakers that are
capable of reproducing the complete bass domain down to the lowest frequencies.
Use setting Small for bookshelf-type speakers or small sized design speakers that
are not capable to produce a rich bass foundation due to their construction.
According to these settings the MAP V2 determines automatically the amount of
bass information that is sent to each speaker. Due to the different calculating
operations that are needed for this bass management, the perceived volume level may
vary between different settings.
2. Distance of speakers to the listening position: Use key Delay Manager
(refer to chapters 'Remote control' and 'Setup')
Measure the distance of each speaker to your listening position and enter the number
into the Delay Manager. Your MAP V2 automatically calculates the necessary delay
of each channel so that the music signals arrive at the exact same time at your
listening position. As the delay settings are calculated and setup in real time, the
music signal may be influenced for the short moment of setting the new value.
3. Level setup: Use key TestTone
(refer to chapter 'Remote control', section 'Keys for level setup')
The noise signal will support you to determine the correct level of each speaker, so
all perceived volumes are the same. This setup is necessary as different speakers
have different sensitivities causing different perceived volumes though the input
signal has the same level.
Note:
· After adjusting the volume levels of all speaker channels we recommend to save
these settings to all input channels as a simple start up for further channel or source
