that they are all heard by the listener at the same

channel input mode and S-Direct mode.

the mode of the test tone with the or cursor
buttons.
If you select “ AUTO ” , the test tone will be cycled
through in a circular pattern which is Left → Center
→ Right → Surround Right → Surround Back Right
→ Surround Back Left → Surround Left →
Subwoofer → Left → .. increments of 3 seconds
for each channel.
Using the or cursor buttons, adjust the volume
level of the noise from the speaker so that it is the
same level for all the speakers.
If you select “ MANUAL ”, adjust the output level of
each speaker as listed below.

(Note that this can be adjusted to any level
between -10 and +10 dB in 1 dB intervals
except the subwoofer setting. The subwoofer

The SR8400 will now emit the pink noise from

2-2 SPEAKERS DISTANCE
Use this parameter to specify the distance of each
speaker’s position from the listening position. The
delay time is automatically calculated according to
these distances.
Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly
used seating position in the room.
This is important for the timing of the acoustics to
create the proper sound space that the SR8400
and today’s sound systems are able to produce.
Note : For speakers that you have selected “
None ”
the Speaker Configuration sub-menu will not appear
here. (There are several useful books and special
DVD and LD’s available to guide you through proper
home theater configuration. If you are unsure, have
your Marantz dealer perform the installation for you.
They are trained professionals familiar with even
the most sophisticated custom installations.
Marantz recommends the WWW.CEDIA.ORG
website for further information about this).
