Adjusting each channel level with test tone
The volume level of each channel can be
adjusted easily with the test tone function.
To adjust each channel level:
1 Press the TEST button.
The test tone mode is displayed and is heard
from each channel’s speaker for two seconds
as follows:
• FL—Front Left
• C—Center
• FR—Front Right
• SR—Surround Right
• SL—Surround Left
• SW—Subwoofer
2 At each channel, press the select or
buttons to adjust the level as desired until the
sound level of each speaker sounds equally
loud.
3 Press TEST to cancel the test tone function.
Adjusting the current channel level
After adjusting each channel level with test tone,
adjust the channel levels either according to the
program sources or to suit your tastes.
You can adjust the current channel levels as
desired. These adjusted levels are memorized
into user’s memory (CAL), not into preset
memory (REF 1 and REF 2).
To adjust the current channel level:
1 Press the CHANNEL LEVEL button.
The memory mode (CAL) is displayed for
several seconds. Wen the memory mode or
channel level disappears, you can press this
button again.
2 Press the select or buttons to select the
channel.
The corresponding channel is selected as
follows:
• REF 1, 2 (or CAL)
• FL
• C
• FR
• SR
• SL
• SW
• DTS or DD—Only when the digital signals
from Dolby Digital or DTS program
sources are input, these levels can be
displayed.
3 Press the select or button to adjust the
level of the channel.
The LFE level can be adjusted within the
range of -10~0 dB and other channel levels
within the range of -15 ~ +15 dB.
In general, we recommend the LFE level to
be adjusted to 0 dB.(However, the
recommended LFE level for some early DTS
software is -10 dB.) If the recommended
levels seem too high, lower the setting as
necessary.
4 Repeat this procedure to adjust each channel
level.
Memorizing the adjusted channel levels
You can memorize the adjusted channel levels
into preset memory (REF 1 or REF 2) and recall
the memorized levels whenever you want.
To memorize the adjusted channel levels:
1 After completing the steps under “Adjusting
the current channel level” on page 14, press
the MEMORY/ENTER button.
The 1 of the REF 1 indicator flickers for
several seconds.
2 Press the select or buttons to select
REF 1 or REF 2.
If the preset memory disappears, repeat
step 1 above.
3 Press the MEMORY/ENTER button to
confirm your selection. The adjusted channel
levels have now been memorized into the
selected memory.

exiting the menu.
