Balancing the surround sound
You can further improve surround sound performance by balancing the levels from the
subwoofer, center and surround speakers relative to the front left/right speakers. To help
you judge the sound level of each speaker a test tone is played through each speaker in
turn (make sure that there are no headphones connected). Adjust the levels until they
all sound equal.
The levels you set here will apply to all Dolby/DTS modes. However, you can set levels
independently for each DSP mode.
Note: it may not be possible to accurately adjust the subwoofer level using this
method. You may prefer to leave it on its default setting and adjust it to your liking later
when playing surround-sound sources.
1 Press SYS then 2/DTS.
The Dolby/DTS mode can be set to any-thing except SURROUND OFF. (No test tone is
output if the Dolby/DTS mode is set to SURROUND OFF.)
2 Set the volume to a moderate level.
3 Press TEST TONE to start the test tone then adjust the master
volume to a suitable level.
The test tone plays through each speaker in turn:
• Front left
• Center
• Front right
• Surround right
• Surround left
• Subwoofer
4 Use the % and fi buttons to adjust the level of a speaker as the
test tone plays.
For best results, sit in your main listening position when doing this. You can adjust each
speaker in the range of +/-10dB.
5 When you're done, press TEST TONE to turn off the test tone.
