User manual ATLANTIC TECHNOLOGY INWALL DAMPING KIT INSTALL GUIDE

[. . . ] Overloading­Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Object and Liquid Entry­Never push objects of any kind into the unit through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the unit. Servicing­Do not attempt to service the unit yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. [. . . ] You will have to experiment with program material and your personal preferences to determine what is acceptable and best for you. 14. button to select the Return to Main Menu Place these speakers behind the listener so that the angle between each speaker and the listener is approximately 30 degrees. Place these speakers so that their height is 1 meter (3 feet) higher than that of the listener's ears. Note on dipole surround loudspeakers: Most dipole surround speakers have an arrow or other marking which indicates their proper orientation relative to your video display/screen. Dipoles placed on side walls should have the arrows pointing forward. Dipoles placed on a rear or back wall should have the arrows pointing towards each other to achieve the correct acoustical image in the room. 15. Press the SELECT or MENU button to return to the Main Menu, or press the MENU button twice to exit the menu system. NOTE: Except for the input source and surround mode, the settings chosen during this input setup process (Treble, Bass, Night Compression) are universal and apply to all sources. You will need to correctly set each source to the appropriate input and select a default surround mode for each source connected to your INWALL DAMPING KIT. Once you have completed these selections, proceed to the next step: configuring your loudspeaker setup and calibrating your system. Subwoofer Subwoofer placement can frequently be a trial and error affair as bass energy sets up"standing waves"in most every room. These standing waves can cause areas with too much bass, areas with too little bass, and areas in between. You may have to move the subwoofer and/or the prime listening area to improve the bass response. A few inches can make a big difference. Be aware that every surface you place the woofer close to (one wall, floor, two walls in a corner) will increase the overall apparent bass in the room. But this can potentially lead to boomy and muddy sounding bass. When connecting any speakers, be sure to read the instruction manuals that came with the product and check your power amplifier's instruction manual for proper hook-up of the loudspeakers.

You make these selections using the Speaker Configuration menu shown below. Figure 2 IMPORTANT NOTE: Contrary to popular myth it is not a matter of opinion as to whether your speakers should be set to large or small. Press the button after you have made a selection. Repeat steps 7 and 8 until you have completed the speaker crossover settings for each group of speakers. 9. button to select the Return to Main Menu 10. Press the SELECT or MENU button to return to the Main Menu, or press the MENU button twice to exit the menu system. System Setup Instruction Manual 27 Channel Calibration The next step is to adjust the output level of each channel so that they are properly matched. This must be done to insure a correct presentation of multi-channel sound sources. The adjustment must be as precise as possible, and is almost impossible to accomplish by ear. Therefore, we recommend that you use a Sound Level Meter. This device insures that all loudspeaker levels are precisely matched and set accurately. (At this writing Radio Shack has an Analog Sound Level Meter that is inexpensive and suitable for this task. ) NOTE: If for any reason you are not sure that you can accomplish this calibration task or have any doubts as to how it should be done, please contact Atlantic Technology's technical support BEFORE attempting this process. and proceed with the calibration as described. 4. Use the < and > buttons to adjust the speaker level. You can adjust the selected channel level in 1dB steps across a range of -15dB to +10dB. The recommended calibration level is 75dB/SPL as displayed on the meter. Note: If you set the main volume level to -10dB, use 65dB/SPL as your calibration level. 5. Press the button when you have finished making the Left Front level adjustment. Set the meter to Slow response and "C" weighting. Set it to the 70 or 80dB sensitivity scale. Position the meter at the approximate center of your listening area, at average ear height [approximately 40-46 inches (102-117 cm)] with its microphone positioned vertically (pointing at the ceiling). Don't aim the microphone at the speakers, as this will produce inaccurate results. To proceed with the adjustments, you will access the Channel Calibration menu shown below. Figure 3 Repeat steps 5 and 6 until you have completed setting the level for each speaker in your system. [. . . ] On the source remote control (original remote control), press and hold the button for the command to be learned until the Status LED on the INWALL DAMPING KIT remote turns green. Release the button on the source remote control. Press and hold the TV Source button and the LIGHT button simultaneously. The red Status LED will flash continuously. The Status LED will then flash green once, orange once then turn off, indicating that all of the learned commands on all of the device modes on the remote control have been erased.
