surround mode. These levels are common for all surround modes,
except 6CH-DIRECT mode.
LEVEL 2/2 (BASS PEAK LEVEL LIMIT)
With Dolby Digital and DTS , not only the LFE (Low Frequency
Effects), but also the bass of all channels can be heard from the
Subwoofer or Large-speakers. This procedure prevents these
speakers from becoming too loud and creating an unbalanced
sound. Since the sound is output at a loud volume, perform this
operation carefully.
TEST SIGNAL: Press the OK button, START is indicated and a Bass
test tone is generated from the speaker, according to
SPK size setup. But the sound is not heard because
the Master volume is set to ∞ automatically. Press
button to move the cursor to VOLUME control.

bass sound begins to distort or maximum level with
the VOL+, VOL– or / button. Press button to
move the cursor to ENTER.
ENTER: Press the OK button, ENTER is blinking and the Bass
test tone stops. The Bass Peak Limit Level for your
system has been memorized
Notes:
Each time the subwoofer level is changed, perform the Bass Peak
Level setup and correct the setting. The bass peak limiter is not
effective in STEREO reproducing for analog input and 96kHz-PCM, or
SOURCE-DIRECT and 6CHANNEL-DIRECT modes are selected.
The selected value is displayed in the volume column before the test
signal starts.

such as sudden explosions, to help prevent
disturbing others late at night.
