built-in test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the
same at the listening position.

Note

• Speakers that you set to “No” or “None” in the

• The speakers cannot be calibrated while the AV receiver is

muted.

• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX, which is

0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at vol-
ume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will be
much louder.

For the center speaker and subwoofer, the level settings made
by using the Home menu are saved (

Tip

• If you’re using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of

each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position,
measured with C-weighting and slow reading.

Equalizer Settings

With the Equalizer settings, you can adjust the tone of
speakers individually with a 7-band equalizer. The volume
of each speaker can be set (
