Level Calibration
Here you can adjust the level of each speaker with the
built-in test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the
same at the listening position.
You can set the levels of front speakers A and front
speakers B independently. The other speakers (i.e.,
subwoofer, center, surround, surround back and front
high) use the same level settings for Speakers A and
Speakers B.

Note
• These settings cannot be calibrated when the AV receiver is
muted.
• Speakers that you set to “No” or “None” in the
“Speaker Configuration” cannot be selected (➔ page 52).
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX, which is
0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at
volume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will
be much louder.
• Speakers B cannot be selected if “Speakers Type(Front B)” is
set to “No” (➔ page 51).

For the center speaker and subwoofer, the level settings made
by using the Home menu are saved in this menu
(➔ page 43).
*2
If the “Subwoofer” setting is set to “1ch”, this setting cannot
be selected (➔ page 52).
Tip
• If you’re using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of
each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position,
measured with C-weighting and slow reading.
Equalizer Settings
With the Equalizer settings, you can adjust the tone of
speakers individually with a 7-band equalizer. The volume
of each speaker can be set.
The Equalizer settings only apply to Speakers A and
cannot be adjusted while Speakers B is selected.
■Equalizer

You can adjust the equalizer for each speaker
manually. Continue with the following procedure:
