Setting the channel levels
You can set the relative channel levels from your main
listening position for all of the listening modes
independently. However, the surround modes are divided
into two independent groups: multichannel listening
modes and stereo listening modes only.
If you used the Room Setup feature (page 20), the
channel levels for each listening mode will already be set.
However, you can still fine-tune the levels here if you need
to.
1
Select a listening mode.
Press
SHIFT
and
SURROUND
or
ADVANCED
repeatedly
(or press once and then use the
/
(cursor up/down)
buttons) to select the listening mode you want.
2
Press SHIFT and TEST TONE to hear the test tone.
The test tone is output in the following order (from the
speakers active in the current listening mode):
•
L
– Front left speaker
•
C
– Center speaker
•
R
– Front right speaker
•
RS
– Right surround speaker
•
LS
– Left surround speaker
•
SW
– Subwoofer
3
Use the /– button to adjust the
volume to an appropriate level.
Turn down the volume to
40
or less to ensure you have
adequate headroom.
4
Use the
/
(cursor up/down) buttons to adjust
the speaker levels in turn.
You should hear the test tone at the same volume from
each speaker when seated in the main listening position.
The channel level range is ± 10 dB.
5
When you’re done, press ENTER to exit test tone
setup.
Tip
• Channel levels can be adjusted while listening to any
sound source you want by pressing
SHIFT
and
CH
LEVEL
and then using the
/
(cursor up/down)
buttons to adjust the level. After you’re finished with
one channel, use the
/
(cursor left/right) buttons
to move to the next.
Note
• When the
Auto
listening mode is selected, using the
test tone method will adjust levels for multichannel
playback only. Use
SHIFT
and
CH LEVEL
and the
/
(cursor up/down) buttons (see tip above) to set
levels for stereo playback with two-channel sources.
• Since the subwoofer produces ultra-low frequencies
its sound may seem quieter than it actually is.
• Settings made here will overwrite settings made
using Room Setup (see
Using the Room Setup
on
page 20). Conversely, using Room Setup again will
overwrite these settings.
