Connections and Setup
2. Setting the Setup Menu
To optimize the front surround sound effect, you can control different levels of surround sound
according to your room size. See page 25 section “Front Surround” for setting the setup menu of
the Player.
Test tone/Channel balance
Channel balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal
“travels” from channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same
loudness level (see page 25).
Level adjustment and surround channel level expectation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, on
actual program material the surround channel is usually much lower than the front. Don’t re-adjust
the surround level; program producers use surround for subtle atmospherics and ambience, and
only rarely for special effects.
