18 MANCHESTER Series Quick Start Guide EQ STRATEGY: Considerations for consistant frequency response in the sound field SUBWOOFER TIME ALIGNMENT Flat arrays (minimium inter-element angle between elements) will have an increase in the mid frequency band typically between 630 Hz -2 kHz MS215 and MS218 pre-sets use all-pass filters to set 1. Subs are forward the initial time alignment (assuming the fronts of the cabinets are in line) this greatly reduces system latency.
