Specifications
I configured for stereo use with bass management. I kept the 63 Hz, 24 dB/octave
crossover and slope settings that I normally use in the SSP with my floor-standing main
speakers.
The initial screen of the OSD is shown below. It tells you the current subwoofer volume
setting (00-99) and which preset (there are six to choose from) is currently selected.
Pressing Menu and/or 1-2-3-4-5 on the remote control (shown below) brings up the
sweep test screen OSD.
With the sweep test screen displayed, the SMS-1 generates a continuous series of sine
wave sweeps from 15 Hz to 200 Hz, repeating every 3 seconds or so. The measurement
microphone then listens to the response at the listening position and plots the overall in-
room response of the system on the screen. It may be necessary to adjust the
receiver/SSP volume control and/or the gain control on the subwoofer to obtain a trace
around the required 80 dB level and correctly balanced between what the subwoofer and
main speakers are producing.
