ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS
4 Adjust the output level of
the effect speakers using
j / i so the output level
coming from the effect
speakers is the same as
that of the main speakers.
While adjusting, the test tone
is heard from the selected
speaker.
Note
• The output level of the main speakers cannot be adjusted here.
5 When the adjustment is
complete, press TEST to
stop the test tone.
Notes
• The tonal quality of the center speaker can be adjusted by using
“5 CENTER GEQ” on the SET MENU (see page 60).
• If “1A CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE, the
center channel sound is automatically output from the left and
right main speakers.
• If “1C REAR L/R SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE, the
output level of the rear right, left and center speakers cannot be
adjusted in step 4. The test tone will be circulated in the order
of LEFT→CENTER→RIGHT→SUBWOOFER→LEFT...,
skipping the rear right and left speakers and the rear center
speaker.
• If “1D REAR CT SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE, the
out level of the rear center speaker cannot be adjusted in step 4.
The test tone will be circulated in the order of
LEFT→CENTER→RIGHT→RIGHT SURROUND→LEFT
SURROUND→SUBWOOFER→LEFT ..., skipping the rear
center speaker.

• It is not necessary to readjust the speaker level once it is set as
long as you do not change the speakers. You can enjoy listening
to or watching the input source with the desired volume by
adjusting the volume key.
• You can increase the output levels of the effect speakers
(center, left rear and right rear and rear center) to +10 dB. If the
output level of these speakers is lower than that of the main
speakers even after you have increased the output level of these
speakers up to +10 dB, set “1F MAIN LEVEL” on the SET
MENU to –10 dB (see page 59). This setting decreases the
main speaker output level to about one-third of the normal
level. After you have set “1F MAIN LEVEL” on the SET
MENU to –10 dB, adjust the levels for the center and rear
speakers again.
The test tone is heard from the left main speaker,
center speaker, right main speaker, right rear speaker,
rear center and left rear speaker in order. The tone is
produced for 2.5 seconds each time.
The state of the test tone output is also shown on the
monitor by an image of the audio listening room.
This is convenient for adjusting each speaker level.
Front panel display also indicates from which
speaker the test tone is output in the order of TEST
LEFT→TEST CENTER→TEST RIGHT→
TEST R SUR.→TEST REAR CNTR→TEST L SUR.
→TEST SUBWOOFER
Note
• If the test tone cannot be heard, turn down the volume, set this
unit in the standby mode and check the speaker connections.
