If 

no

setup  microphone  is  plugged  into  TheaterMaster’s  rear-panel  MIC  jack,  the  Speaker

Adjustment Screen will be displayed. Press the 

LF

CTR

RF

, or any other speaker key on

the  remote  control.  This  will  direct  pink  noise  to  the  selected  speakers  only.  The  selected
speakers will highlight. Adjust the volume on these speakers by pressing and holding 

VOL+

or 

VOL-

Caution: 

In this mode, you can adjust the LF and RF volumes independently, providing a means to

adjust left-right channel balance. To preserve left-right channel balance throughout this setup procedure,
activate  both LF  and  RF  speakers,  and  adjust  their  volumes  simultaneously.  If  you  wish  to  restore
left-right balance at any time, select both the LF and RF speakers in this static noise generator mode,
go to 

page 3

on the 

TheaterMaster

device and press

F - 

x - x

(wher

x - x 

is a two-digit number signi-

fying the number of dB below full output, 

F - 0 - 0

, or 0 dB) to set both speakers to the same volume

level. Similar comments apply to LS and RS. Then go back to page 2 of the 

Setup 1

device to continue.

Press  the  selected  speaker  again  to  de-select  that  speaker.  Use  this  procedure  to  adjust 
all  five  speakers  (LF,  CTR,  RF,  LS,  and  RS)  to  equal  sound  pressure  levels,  which  can  be
determined  either  by  ear  or  by  use  of  a  sound  pressure  meter.  (See,  however,  Chapter  IV: 
“C. Tweaking the system”.) The subwoofer volume must be handled separately—see Chap-
ter IV: “B. Setting the subwoofer level”.

When the setup microphone is plugged in, activating the Static Noise Generator automati-
cally  brings  up  TheaterMaster’s  Calibrated  SPL  Meter  Screen.  This  screen  can  be  used  in
place  of  an  SPL  meter  to  achieve  accurate  speaker  balance.  Hold  the  microphone  in  the 
center  listening  position,  pointing  upward.  Background  noise  and  conversation  should  be
minimized during speaker calibration.

Exit the Static Noise Generator by pressing 

o

on the remote control.

After completing this procedure, perform the automatic speaker delay calibration described
below, and then adjust the subwoofer level following the procedure described in Chapter 
IV:
“B. Setting the subwoofer level”.

C. Manual speaker delay calibration:

For  customers  who  lack  a  setup  microphone  or  who  are  having  technical  difficulties  with

AutoDelay

, time alignment of the speakers can be accomplished manually.

To achieve this, first measure the distances (in meters) from the center listening position to
the  center  speaker  (CTR),  front  speakers  (LF  or  RF),  and  surround  speakers  (LS  or  RS).
Following these measurements, bring up the Speaker Distances Screen by repeatedly pressing

DISP

on page 4 of the remote’s 

TheaterMaster 

device (see figure, page 16). 

Once  in  the  Speaker  Distances  Screen,  go  to  page  2  of  the  remote’s 

Setup  1

device.  Then

select a desired speaker by pressing the corresponding speaker  buttons  on  the  remote  con-
trol.  This  speaker  will  highlight.  [Note  that  the  front  speakers  (LF  and  RF)  and  surround
speakers (LS and RS) can only be selected in pairs.] Now increase or decrease the speaker
distances displayed to match your measured distances by pressing 

CH+

or 

CH-

. To exit and

store these distances, press 

o
