IMPORTANT NOTE:
Because this test noise will
have a much lower level than normal music, the
volume must be lowered after the adjustment
for all channels is made, BEFORE you turn the
test tone off.
NOTE:
This is a good time to verify that the
speakers have been properly connected. As the
test noise circulates, listen to make certain that
the sound comes from the speaker position
shown in the Main Information Display. If the
sound from a speaker location does NOT match
the position indicated in the display, turn the
AVR off using the
Main Power Switch
and
check the speaker wiring to make certain that
each speaker is connected to the correct output
terminal.
After checking for speaker placement, let the
test noise circulate again, and listen to see
which channels sound louder than the others.
Using the front left speaker as a reference, press
the
K
/
L
buttons
C
on the remote to bring
all speakers to the same volume level. Note that
when one of the
K
/
L
buttons is pushed, the
test noise circulation will pause on the channel
being adjusted to give you time to make the
adjustment. When you release the button, the
circulation will resume after five seconds.
Continue to adjust the individual speakers until
they all have the same volume. Note that adjust-
ments should be made with the
K
/
L
buttons
C
on the remote only, NOT the main volume
controls.
When all channels have the same output level,
turn the
Volume
I
down to about -40dB,
otherwise the listening level may be too high as
soon as the source’s music starts to play. After-
wards press the
Test Tone Selector
7
but-
ton again to turn the test tone off and complete
the process.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The Output level adjust-
ment made will be effective for the surround
mode currently selected, also when other inputs
are selected using the same surround mode. To
adjust the output level with all other surround
modes used, step through all inputs you´re using
by pressing the
Source Selector
buttons
A
on the front panel or the appropriate Input
Selectors
4
on the remote. When the
indicator for any surround mode for which the
level adjustment has not yet been made lights
in the
Main Information Display
F
or its
Indicator will illuminate in the
Surround Mode
Indicators
field
D
, repeat the level adjustment
described above. This will also allow you to com-
pensate level differences between speakers, that
may be different with each surround mode, or to
increase or decrease the level of certain speakers
intentionally, depending on the surround mode
selected.
Once the settings outlined on the previous
pages have been made, the AVR is ready for
operation. While there are some additional set-
tings to be made, these are best done after you
have had an opportunity to listen to a variety of
sources and different kinds of program material.
These advanced settings are described on page
30 of this manual. In addition, any of the set-
tings made in the initial configuration of the unit
may be changed at any time.
As you add new or different sources or speakers,
or if you wish to change a setting to better
reflect your listening taste, simply follow the
instructions for changing the settings for that
parameter as shown above. Note that any set-
tings changed at any time, will be stored in
memory in the AVR, also if it´s turned off com-
pletely, unless it will be reset (see page 34).
Having completed the setup and configuration
process for your AVR, you are about to
experience the finest in music and home theater
listening. Enjoy!
