Note
If you are using a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter,
take the readings from your main listening position
and adjust the level of each speaker to 75 dB SPL (C-
weighting/slow reading).
The subwoofer test tone is output at low volumes. You
may need to adjust the level after testing with an
actual soundtrack.
5 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
You can change the channel levels at any time by
using
EFFECT/CH SEL
and
+/–
on the remote control.
You can set separate levels for the listening modes
(Standard, Home THX, Advanced and Stereo/Direct)
as well as for the
MULTI CH IN
mode. However, the
listening mode setting will be cleared if you use one
of the setups (for example, the System Setup or Auto
Setup) to set the channel levels at a later date.
Speaker Distance
For good sound depth and separation from your system,
you need to specify the distance of your speakers from
the listening position. The receiver can then add the
proper delay needed for effective surround sound.
1 Select ‘Speaker Distance’ from the Manual SP
Setup menu.
2 Adjust the distance of each speaker using the
/
(cursor left/right) buttons.
You can adjust the distance of each speaker in 0.1 meter
increments.
3 When you’re finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual SP Setup menu.
Tip
For best surround sound, make sure the surround
back speakers are the same distance from the
listening position.
