Balancing the surround sound

You can further improve surround sound performance
by balancing the levels from the subwoofer, center and
surround speakers relative to the front left/right
speakers. To help you judge the sound level of each
speaker a test tone is played through each speaker in
turn (make sure that there are no headphones
connected). Adjust the levels until they all sound equal.

The levels you set herwwe will apply to all surround modes.
However, you can set levels independently for each DSP
mode (see page 64 for more on this).

It may not be possible to accurately adjust the
subwoofer level using this method. You may prefer to
leave it on its default setting and adjust it to your liking
later when playing surround-sound sources.

1 Press SURROUND.
