• If you change the volume level settings for the speakers while
listening to music, the settings referred to on this page are also
changed.
• If the speaker setting selects are OFF, the speaker level
settings are reset.
2 Press the SET UP or display operation 2 [Next] key.
The test tone is turned off. The receiver enters the mode for
inputing the bass peak level and the current peak level will
be shown.
To obtain accurate output levels, it is recommended to use
a handheld Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter. Readings
should be taken from your actual listening position and
adjust the level of each speaker to 75dB SPL (C-weighted/
slow meter mode).
Adjust the bass peak level.
A restriction is put on the low frequency so that the bass peak
level will not go higher than the acceptable level when the volume
is increased.
If subwoofer speaker is OFF, the limitation will affect the low
frequency of the front left and right speakers.
1 Use the MULTI CONTROL knob or 5/ keys to adjust the
bass peak level to –30.
• The bass peak level may be adjusted from – 30dB to 0dB and
OFF.
• When no subwoofer is in use, the test tone will be output from the
front channel speakers.
2 To find the bass peak level limit, keep increasing the
bass peak level by using the MULTI CONTROL knob or
5/ keys while test tone is being output until the clip
point of the subwoofer is found.
3 Press the SET UP or display operation 2 [Next] key.
• The receiver enters the mode for inputting the distance to the
speakers.
1 Use the INPUT SELECTOR knob to select the source which
you want to adjust.
You can store a separate input level for each input source. If the
MONITOR function is ON, you can store an input level for when
MONITOR is on independently of the input levels for the input
sources.
2 Press the SOUND key repeatedly until the “INPUT”
indication appears.
3 Use the MULTI CONTROL knob or 5/ keys to adjust the
input level.
The adjustment mode is displayed for approximately eight
seconds.
• The input level may be adjusted to any one of three settings:0dB,
-3dB, and -6dB. (The initial setting is 0dB.)
4 Press the SOUND key again to return to the input indication.
