Speaker Level Calibration
With these settings, you can adjust the level of each
speaker while listening to the test tone so that the volume
of each speaker is the same at the listening position.
Notes:
• The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of
the AV receiver is muted or a pair of headphones is
connected.
• Because the AV receiver supports THX, the test
tone is output at the standard level of 0 dB (abso-
lute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at
volume settings below this, be careful because the
test tone will be much louder.
Note:
• The speaker levels can also be changed by using the
dedicated buttons on the remote controller. Press the
[TEST TONE] button to output the test tone. Use the
[CH SEL] button to select each speaker, and use the
[LEVEL–] and [LEVEL+] buttons to adjust the level.
1 Press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE
MODE button, followed by the
[SETUP] button.
The main menu appears onscreen.
2 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select “3. Speaker
Setup,” and then press [ENTER].
The Speaker Setup menu appears.
These settings are set automatically by the Automatic
Speaker Setup function (see page 40).

3 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select “Level Calibra-
tion,” and then press [ENTER].
The Level Calibration menu appears
and the pink noise test tone is output by
the front left speaker.
Note:
Speakers that you set to No or None on
the Speaker Config menu (page 70)
cannot be adjusted.
4 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select each speaker,
and use the Left and Right
[
]/[ ] buttons to set the vol-
ume.
The level can be adjusted from –12 to
+12 dB in 1 dB steps (–15 to +12 dB
for the subwoofer).
5 Repeat step 4 so that the volume
of the test tone from each
speaker is the same.
If you’re using a handheld sound level
meter, adjust the level of each speaker
so it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening
position, measured with C-weighting
and slow reading.
6 Press the [SETUP] button.
Setup closes.
