Speaker Setup
Crossover
When adding a subwoofer it is necessary to
set the crossover frequency between front
speakers “left” and “Right” and the
subwoofer. The crossover can be adjusted
from 40Hz to 220Hz. This will both control
the subwoofer high frequency cut-off and the
low frequency cut-off of the speakers.
Levels
The output level for the front speakers can
be adjusted from -10dB to +10dB. This can be
used to move the “center” of the sound field.
E.g. if the left speaker is placed further away
from the wanted center position than the
right speaker, increase the level of the left
speaker until the wanted center position is
achieved.
Lip Sync
This feature is used to delay the audio signal in HDMI signals. The video processing is sometimes
slower than audio processing which can lead to that the audio and video signal are not
synchronised. The audio signal can be delayed from 0ms to 200ms in steps of 10ms to match the
video signal.
Tip: It is often most easy to adjust the audio signal to the video signal by looking at lips and listen
to when the spoken words is heard.
Phase Sub
When a subwoofer is connected it is important that the subwoofer and the front speakers play in
phase. This means that when the bass driver in the front speakers move outwards the subwoofer
moves outwards also. When the subwoofer is placed closely to one of the front speakers the
phase should be set to 0 degrees. If the subwoofer is placed far from the front speakers a better
bass might be obtained by setting the phase to 180 degrees.
Tip: Place the subwoofer and the front loudspeakers in their wanted position. Place yourself in the
listening position and play a song with a lot of bass. Then make a friend change the setting back
and forth between 0 and 180 degrees. The setting given the most bass it the best setting.

System Setup
HDMI
Under the HDMI setting CEC and ARC can be
switched on/off.
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is an
HDMI feature which allows one device to be
controlled from another device. If the MSU is
connected to a TV which supports CEC then
volume control can be controlled from the
television. Turning on and off the television
will also turn on/off the MSU depending on
the settings on the television.
Audio Return Channel (ARC) is an HDMI
feature which allows audio to be sent back
from the TV to the MSU through the HDMI
output cable from the MSU. When the MSU
is connected to a TV with ARC through an
HDMI cable the video signal are send to the
TV. When watching TV the audio signal is
send back through the same HDMI cable to
the MSU so the TV sound is played through
the MSU instead. This way only one cable is
needed between MSU and TV.
Power Auto
This controls how the MSU works when no input signal is detected. The MSU can be set to shut
down after 30 or 60 minutes of inactivity. Chose ‘Never’ if you do not want the MSU to shut down
unless you do it yourself.
Setting the MSU to ‘Sleep’ means that the MSU will enter a sleep mode when pressing the turn off
button on either the MSU or remote control. ‘Sleep’ mode means that the display and amplifier
shuts down to minimise power consumption when not used but the WiFi network connection is
on. This allows the MSU to be turned on from the MSU iPhone App.
Volume Level
This sets the volume level when the MSU starts up. It can either be set to Last or Custom. When
Last is chosen the volume level at last shutdown will be used when turning on again.
Custom is used to manual chose the start-up volume level in the range 10 to 99.
WiFi Module 2.4GHz
The MSU can connect to WiFi networks or create its own when needed. When choosing ‘Direct’
the MSU will create its own network which devices can connect and stream to without use of
