2.16 AP20 Playback Sound Check
After installing and setting up the unit—or doing a maintenance check—it is a good idea to
play content and stand in the theater while listening to the first few minutes of the movie.
Check for the following
The overall sound level is comfortable and balanced.
The soundtrack quality is excellent and does not include extraneous noise.
The dialog is in sync with the picture being projected.
The surround speakers are heard at the correct level. (Please note that not all scenes will
have surround material.)
To adjust the overall sound level in the theater, adjust the main fader on the audio processor.
