Test Tone / Channel balance
Channel balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator
for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels"
from channel to channel, adjust the level controls
until each channel plays at the same loudness level.
(details see operation of test/setup)
Level adjustment & surround channel level expec-
tation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be
as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find
that on actual program material the surround chan-
nel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be
tempted to readjust the surround level; program pro-
ducers use surround mostly for subtle atmosphereics
and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A
good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if
it did, it would soon become distracting.
Connecting for Power
Make sure you connect all your
other electronic components and
the
speakers before plugging your
receiver into the outlet. Plug the
power cord in the wall outlet,
matching the wide blade of the
plug with the wide slot in the
outlet. Be sure to insert the plug completely.
Using Headphones
To listen privately through your
audio system, use the PHONES jack
on the receiver. However, make
sure you turn down the volume
before you put on the head-
phones. Increase the volume to the
desired level after headphones are
in place.
Once headphones are connected, “HEADPHONE
DOWNMIX 2 CHANNEL” will scroll on display. This
feature automatically converts multi-channel speaker
outputs to 2 channel stereo for your listening pleas-
ure.
Hearing Comfort & Well-Being
• Do not play your headset at a high volume.
Hearing experts advise against continous extended

• If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce
volume or discontinue use.
