buttons to adjust speaker
levels so that you hear the test tone at the
same volume from each speaker when seated
in your main listening position.
• If a speaker is deselected in the center, surround
speaker or subwoofer setting mode (see page 28) then
no test tone will be output for that speaker.
• The channel level range is ± 10 dB.
• Levels can be set for each surround mode.
5 Press
TEST TONE
to turn off the test tone.
• Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra-low frequency
its sound may seem quieter than it actually is. Be
careful not to turn up your subwoofer too much and
check the volume with an actual source.
• The subwoofer volume is best controlled with the
volume control on the powered subwoofer.
• The speaker volume can be adjusted without
outputting the test tone by pressing CH SELECT and
+/
−
button.
• The default setting is 0 dB for all channels.
• If you have adjusted the channel level using the +
button, even if the master volume is all the way up
you’ll never actually get a volume level that is 0 dB
(full volume).
