Press the ¤ Menu Control button and note that the words Noise Source ON will be high-
lighted. If you wish to temporarily silence the test noise at any point during this step, press the
¤ or ⁄ Menu Control buttons until this line is highlighted. Then, press the ‹ or › Menu Control
button until the display changes to Noise Source OFF . The configuration process may be
resumed by using the buttons to turn the display back to Noise Source ON .
Before starting the formal configuration process, turn the test noise off and look at the on-screen
display. It should contain a speaker present indication
(0) and a level offset indication of Zero +00
at each speaker location established in the previous steps. For example, the configuration shown
above in Figure OSD-6 is for a full complement of speakers: left, center and right fronts, Dual Drive
surrounds and stereo subwoofers. Your screen display will differ if there is a mono subwoofer or dif-
ferent surround speaker configurations.
If all speakers appear where they should, the next step is to verify that they are properly connected.
Turn the
Noise Source back on, and press the ¤ Menu Control button once. Use the Volume
Controls ∫ 8 to adjust the volume level if needed.
Note that the highlight will move to the icon for the front speaker, as indicated by a highlight for
that position (Figure OSD-7).

In addition, the words Left Front will appear in the middle of the screen, or on the right side of
the front panel display. Press the ¤ Menu Control button to advance the active speaker, and note
that the sound location will change. If all speakers have been properly connected, the sound will
emanate from the speaker location that matches the on-screen display. If all speaker locations match
the displays, proceed to the next step.
If any position you hear sound from a speaker that DOES NOT match the on-screen indication, press
the Menu button ˙ three times so that the on-screen displays go out. Turn the 5.0 off using the
Master Power button 1 , and turn off all power amplifiers connected to the 5.0. To correct the mis-
match, make certain that the connections are corrected, turn the 5.0 and the amplifiers back on, and
then use the instruction shown above to return to the
Sound Level Calibration menu
(Figure OSD-6).
When all amplifier and speaker connections have been verified, press the ¤ Menu Control button
so that the Left Front speaker is highlighted (Figure OSD-7) and use the Volume Controls
∫ 8 so that the test noise is at a comfortable level. For more accurate calibration of the system, it is
recommended that a sound-pressure level meter be used, and that the first calibration be made to an
SPL level of 75dB, at the “C Weighting/Slow” setting on the meter.
Note: The use of a properly calibrated SPL meter in setting the output levels is critical in order
to achieve the maximum performance from the 5.0. If you do not have an SPL meter, or are
unfamiliar with its use, it is strongly recommended that a trained installer assist with this portion
of the system installation.
