ADVANCED OPERATIONS
You can use the test tone feature to manually balance your
speaker levels. Please note that this operation will override
the level adjustments made in “AUTO SETUP” (page 24),
“Speaker level” (page 50) and “Manually adjusting
speaker levels” (page 45). Use the test tone to set speaker
levels so that the volume from each speaker is identical
when heard from your listening position.
