I want to change the boundary settings on my DSP5500s. I last did this five or six years ago and must have forgotten the procedure. The manual says that I turn off the Master speaker, then turn it back on while holding down the Store button to get to the Setup menu. That works fine. It then says I am suppose to use the <- and -> to scroll through the menu. Unfortunately, when I press those arrow keys nothing happens. I've even tried holding down the Function button while pressing the arrow keys and that doesn't work either. Any ideas?

To select Setup mode
Turn off the DSP loudspeaker using the power switch on the back panel.
Turn on the power again while holding down the Store key on the remote.
The display will show: Setup
It will then revert to standby:
The display shows: .
You can now operate the speaker in the usual way, using the additional setup menus to adjust the response while listening to sources. Whilst implied it is not explicit that one must press a source key to bring the DSP out of standby before you can configure it. I recommend using the CD, RADIO or DVD source key as these 3 can't be reprogramed on the MSR+. Regards, Carl

I had the same problem - I must admit the m instructions are not very good! I have the same speakers please let me know what you adjust too and why - thanks.

The fronts of my DSP5500s are 36" from the back wall. For the moment, I have Boundary set to Free. I still have to do some measurements and try the other choices.

Didn't I read somewhere (Wiki ?) that it's best to set boundary to free before running MRC - and leaving it this way - implying that the boundary settings are (perhaps only) useful if you aren't running MRC ?

Correct. I am running a music server directly into the DSP5500s, so I won't be using MRC.

Hi Frank,
I'm curious as to why you have choose to run your system this way (bypassing the G68) or is this for for another another system with a different pair of 5k5s?
Regards,
Carl

I have set up a second, smaller, acoustically treated listening room, and have temporarily moved my DSP5500s there from my main room until I decide whether to buy another set of DSPs, most likely the DSP5200s, or to succumb to the Dark Side, and re-enter the interconnect->amplifier->speaker cable->passive speaker game.
