Using the Test Tone
The adjustment of each speaker sound output level should
be performed at your listening position with the remote
control. After completing the adjustments, use VOLUME
(+/–) at your listening position to check if the adjustments
are satisfactory.
1 Set the selector dial to the
AMP/TUN (or DSP/TUN)
position.
2 Press TEST.
“TEST LEFT” appears on the display.
3 Turn up the volume.
You will hear a test tone (like pink noise) from each
speaker for about two seconds in the following order:
left main speaker, center speaker, right main speaker,
right rear speaker and left rear speaker. The display
changes as shown below.
Notes
• If the test tone cannot be heard, turn down the volume, set the unit
in the standby mode and check the speaker connections.
• If the test tone cannot be heard from the center speaker, check the
setting of “CENTER SP” on the SET MENU.
This procedure lets you adjust the sound output level
balance between the main, center and rear speakers by using
the built-in test tone generator. When this adjustment is
performed, the sound output level heard at the listening
position will be the same from each speaker. This is
important for the best performance of the digital sound field
processor, the Dolby Pro Logic decoder, Dolby Digital
decoder and DTS decoder.
Before You Start Adjusting
1 Set VOLUME to the “ m ”
position.
2 Turn the power on.
3 Press SPEAKERS A or B
to select the main
speakers to be used.
If you use two main speaker
systems, press both A and B.
4 Set BASS, TREBLE and BALANCE to the “0”
position.
