Sound Control Features

Description

SpaceFit Sound Pro

This feature analyses your listening space using the soundbar's microphone to deliver optimal audio quality. Sound optimisation runs automatically. 

AVA (Active Voice Amplifier) Pro 

This feature analyses external noise to help ensure clear voice quality. 

Sound Elevation

When the soundbar is placed below the TV, this feature compensates for the mismatch between the sound output position and the visual position on the screen. When this feature is set to ON, you can experience the effect of the sound coming directly from the TV screen. 

Auto Volume 

This feature automatically adjusts the volume to help maintain a consistent level when changing content or switching to another external input.

Voice Enhancement

Improves the dialogue quality in videos and TV shows.

Night mode 

Optimises the listening experience at night by lowering the volume while keeping spoken dialog clear. 

Sound Grouping

The full sound is played through both the soundbar and rear speakers, making it ideal for a group of people in a large space. 

Private Rear

This feature allows you to send audio to only the rear speakers, so you can listen without being disturbed. In this mode, no sound will come from the soundbar or subwoofer. Only the front channels of the rear speakers will produce sound. Only available when a rear speaker is connected.

Sync

If the video and audio are out of sync when played through the TV and soundbar, you can adjust the audio delay between 0 and 300 milliseconds using the Up/Down button. Sync is supported only in certain functions. 

Virtual

While Surround mode is on, it provides extended sound effects when playing Dolby/DTS content. 

Moderate Bass

When turned ON, the subwoofer is muted and bass will be output through the soundbar. When turned OFF, the subwoofer is turned on, and no bass will be output through the soundbar. 

3 When you select the feature you want, press the Up button to turn 'ON' or Down button to turn 'OFF'.
