VERY
IMPORTANT:
SETTING
CHANNEL
BALANCE
AND
BASS
MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS
Dolby
Digital
and
Dolby
ProLogic
systems
and
decoders
have
a
critical
channel
balancing
procedure
for
the
left
and
right
front
speakers,
center
channel,
rears
and
subwoofer
(if
it
is
hooked
up
through
the
LFE
or
Sub
Out
low-level
connection)
which
must
be
followed
if
the
system
is
to
perform
properly.
We
have
spoken
with
many
system
users
with
problems
relating
to
the
overall
sound
of
their
system
which
could
be
clearly
traced
back
to
improper
system
balance.
Also
note
that
Dolby
Digital
decoders
have
bass
management
systems
(systems
which
direct
the
bass
to
the
various
channels)
which
vary
from
unit
to
unit.
This
bass
management
system
must
also
be
properly
adjusted.
H
your
Mythos
Gem
loudspeakers
are
hooked
up
with
speaker
level
wires
coming
directly
from
your
amplifier
and
you
are
using
a
separate
subwoofer
which
is
connected
to
your
receiver
only
with
a
LFE
low-level
connection,
your
receiver's
or
decoder's
bass
management
system
should
be
set
for
''Small''
left
and
right
main
speakers,
''Small''
center,
"Small"
surrounds,
and
"Yes"
subwoofer.
