Adjusting speaker output level

Adjust the level of the other speakers based on the output of the front
speakers. (Output is only from the speakers selected in the SPEAKERS
settings. Adjust the volume of the front speakers with [VOLUME].) 

2. Select.

3. Select the speakers.

C (center), RS (right surround), SB (surround back) and LS (left
surround) can be adjusted between –10 dB and +10 dB, with 0 being the
level of the front speakers. 
Adjust center, surround and surround back output to the same apparent
level of the front speakers. 

For SW (subwoofer), you can select “MIN” for minimum output, a level
between 1 and 19, or “MAX” for maximum output. Adjust subwoofer
output so it is balanced with the front speakers. Subwoofer output is
easily influenced by the source. You can also change its level while
playing something for better effect (

 page 19).

Preparation: Press [SPEAKERS A] to turn on SPEAKERS A.
