Fine Channel Level
The following steps show you how to balance the sound output level of your speakers more finely than in the
NORMAL setup (see page 40). Proper speaker balance is essential for obtaining high quality surround sound and
the better the speaker balance the better surround sound you can get.
Follow steps 1-5 on page 96, if necessary, to get to the
starting point mentioned here.
1 FINE CHANNEL LEVEL should be
selected, if it isn’t use the
buttons
to select and press ENTER.
2 Use the
buttons to adjust the
level of the left channel. Press ENTER.
Test tones will be output.
WARNING: Be prepared! The test tones are output at
a high volume level.
MASTER VOLUME rotates to the reference position (0 dB)
and after a few seconds the test tone is output.
3 Use the
buttons to select the
subsequent channel. Press ENTER.
4 Adjust the level of the channel using
the
buttons.
Adjust the channel level from -10 dB to +10 dB in 0.5 dB
increments.
The default setting is 0 dB.
Try to get the volume level of the target speaker to match
that of the front left speaker, which is the reference level.
Adjust so that you hear both tones at the same volume.
When you press ENTER you will automatically go to the
next channel.
5 Press ENTER to select a new channel.
Repeat step 3 for every channel.
If you want to change a setting before proceeding
Use the
buttons to go back to the channel you want
to adjust and press ENTER. Then follow step 3.

already selected) and press ENTER.
