Setting Up for Surround Sound

3 Adjust the level of each channel using

the

2 3

buttons (except for the AUTO

setting where the adjustment is done
automatically).

NOTE : The volume of the subwoofer test tone tends to
sound lower than it actually is. You may need to adjust the
level after testing with an actual soundtrack.

In MANUAL (manual test tone) mode
This mode lets you switch the test tone manually between
each speaker using the

5∞ buttons.

In SEMI AUTO (automatic test tone) mode
This mode switches the test tone between each speaker
automatically. The automatic test tone is output in the
following order:

FL

CT

FR

RS

SW

LS

SBL

SBR

Adjust the level of each speaker as the test tone is
emitted.

If you are using a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) meter
Take the readings from your main listening position and
adjust the level of each speaker to 75 dB SPL
(C-weighting/slow reading).

4 In MANUAL mode, when done select

RETURN with the

5∞

buttons and

press ENTER.

In SEMI AUTO mode, anytime you
want to exit the process press ENTER.

The MASTER VOLUME will return to its original position.

In AUTO mode, when the setup is
complete you’ll see the “!!Finish!!”
screen.

If you want to view the settings select CHECK and press
ENTER. After checking to make sure they’re right select
RETURN and press ENTER. If you don’t want to view the
settings simply select RETURN and press ENTER.

Next, proceed to SPEAKER DISTANCE.
