accordance with the front speakers.
The front left speaker will serve as the reference tone. The front left tone and the target speaker (the one you
are trying to adjust) will sound in turns, so you can judge which needs to be louder.

to the starting point mentioned here.

WARNING: the test tones are very loud!!
Make sure there are no infants or small children
in the room and that no one who will be scared,
upset or damaged by loud noise is present. You
yourself may want to wear earplugs.
ACOUSTIC CAL EQ: All speakers (except for
the subwoofer) are set in accordance with the
settings of the FRONT speakers. You can adjust
each speaker individually to suit your taste. This
setting allows the listener to enjoy a sound
balance defined by the front speakers (the main
speakers for home theater). The front left
speaker will serve as the reference tone. The
front left tone and the target speaker (the one
you are trying to adjust) will sound in turns, so
you can judge which needs to be louder.
