The test tones will sound.
WARNING: the test tones are very loud!! Make sure
there are no infants or small children in the room and that
no one who will be scared, upset or damaged by loud
noise is present. You yourself may want to wear earplugs.
Here the terms ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN
represent two types of equalizer methods that emphasize
different characteristics of the sound.
ALL CH ADJUST: In this method all the speakers
(except for the subwoofer) are independent. The
settings that were input when you did the AUTO
SURROUND SETUP (see page 13) will be present
but you can adjust each speaker individually to suit
your taste. The test tones for each channel will
sound individually.
FRONT ALIGN: In this method all speakers (except
for the subwoofer) are set in accordance with the
settings of the FRONT speakers. The settings that
were input when you did the AUTO SURROUND
SETUP (see page 13) will be present but you can
adjust each speaker individually to suit your taste.
This setting allows the listener to enjoy a sound
balance defined by the front speakers. The front
left speaker will serve as the reference tone. The
front left tone and the target speaker (the one you
are trying to adjust) will sound in turns, so you can
judge which needs to be louder.
3Use the  buttons to select the
channel that you want to adjust.
Press ENTER.
For FRONT ALIGN you won’t be able to adjust the FRONT
speakers.
4Use the  buttons to select the
frequency you want to adjust. Press
