adjusting the overall balance of your speaker system. You
can adjust the Channel Level of each speaker in 0.5 dB
increments. The following setting can help you make
detailed adjustments that you may not achieve using the
Manual speaker setup
on page 124.
1
Select ‘Fine Channel Level’ from the Manual
MCACC setup menu.
The volume increases to the 0.0 dB reference level.
2
Adjust the level of the left channel.
This will be the reference speaker level, so you may want
to keep the level around
0.0dB
so that you’ll have plenty
of room to adjust the other speaker levels.
• After pressing
ENTER
, test tones will be output.
3
Select each channel in turn and adjust the levels (+/
–10.0 dB) as necessary.
Use

selected to match the reference speaker. When it sounds
like both tones are the same volume, press
to confirm
and continue to the next channel.
• For comparison purposes, the reference speaker will
change depending on which speaker you select.
• If you want to go back and adjust a channel, simply
