Speaker Config [SPC]
In the menu Speaker Config [SPC] you can set the availability and the type of speakers for
each pair of speakers (e.g. front left and right), the center speaker and the subwoofer. By
default the Amp 5.1 has 5.1 passive speaker configuration. Setups from 2.0 up to 7.1.4 are
possible using Canton Smart speakers, with maximum 6 speakers connected by wire and 8
Smart speakers connected wirelessly.
The following speakers can be set up with the Amp 5.1:
•
(2) Front left and right [FRT]: The main speakers are positionend in the front left and front
right and represent a "2.0 minimal configuration". The speakers should be positioned in a
25° to 30° angle from the listening position.
•
(3) Center [CE]: The center speaker optimizes the center localization in a homecinema
system and is the main source for speech. The center speaker should be positioned in the
center under of above the TV.
•
(4) Surround left and right [SUR] : They represent the two surround speakers in a 5.0 / 5.1
system. To achieve the best surround effects the speakers should be positioned in an angle
between 90° and 110° (on each side) to the listening position with a minimum height of
60cm.
•
(5) Rear left and right [RER]: These speakers are used in a 7 channel homecinema system.
They support the surround speakers to reproduce a homogeneous surround sound. Ideally
the two rear speakers are positioned in a 135° to 150° angle. When using the rear speakers
[RER], the surround speakers [SUR] should be positioned a bit more to the front on the side
of the listening position.
•
(6) Top Front left and right [TF]: They reproduce the Dolby Atmos
®
signals. You can choose
between upfiring speakers or ceiling speakers. The upfiring speakers (Dolby Atmos
®
Enabled
speaker) are placed on top of the front left and right speakers. When using ceiling speakers
the position should be left and right above the listening position (in a 90° angle, please refer
to figure 1.1).
