NOTE: The test tone generates a noise which may not be
heard through a subwoofer. To set your sub to a suitable
level, turn off the test tone and experiment with the trim
while playing a piece of music or a movie you are familiar
with. There is no right or wrong level for the sub: simply fi nd
the balance that is best for you.

NOTE: It is not necessary to adjust delay times separately
for a DTS (Digital Theater Systems) source.
DIMENSION (Dolby Pro Logic II Music Mode only) Allows
the gradual adjustment of the soundfi eld either
towards the front or the rear. This can help
achieve the desired balance from all the
speakers with certain recordings that may
contain either too much or too little spatial
effect. Step ‘0’ is the recommended setting,
which has no effect on the sound. Steps
‘+1’, ‘+2’ and ‘+3’ gradually move the sound
forward, and steps ‘–1’, ‘–2’ and ‘–3’ move the
sound towards the surrounds.
Channel balance page
From the Channel balance page, you can trim the level of
each individual loudspeaker connected to the AVR200. Due to
the different performance characteristics or positioning of each
loudspeaker they may need to be set to different levels to
provide a balanced sound from the listening position. To help set
this balance, the AVR200 can generate a test tone that plays an
identical signal through each channel in turn. Trim the balance
of each speaker in turn until they all appear to produce the
same volume.
Once the channel balance page is shown in the OSD, press
the
TEST button on the remote control to start the test tone.
Make sure that either Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby
Pro Logic II is selected, and that the volume on the AVR200
is set suffi ciently high for the tone to be heard. The test tone
automatically cycles through each speaker channel until the
TEST button is pressed a second time.
Each loudspeaker can be trimmed between +10dB and –10dB.
You can return to the Channel balance page at any time (without
fi rst entering the OSD) by pressing the
TEST button on the
remote control. Press TEST again to exit this page.
Channel delays page
For best results in a surround sound system, the sound from
all loudspeakers should reach the listener at the same time. To
help achieve this the AVR200 can add slight delays to certain
channels when in Dolby Digital or Dolby Pro Logic modes.
When playing a Dolby Digital source you can set a delay for the
centre channel of between 0 and 5ms and a delay for the rear
channels of between 0 and 15ms.
The method of calculating these delay times is described
overleaf.
