taste. This will give you flexibility later when you need to adjust the subwoofer’s
volume by remote control.
4. When you are done balancing your speakers, play some movie samples to
help you make any final adjustments.
5. Trust your ears above all else.
Double Check Speaker Distances
The auto setup will calculate speaker distances to the main listening position.
Usually, these measurements will be fairly accurate. However, we suggest getting
out the old measuring tape to double check them. Occasionally, we have found them
to be inaccurate, especially when wireless speakers or subwoofers are used in the
system.
Using a Sound Level Meter
If you have a sound level meter, you can use it to balance your speakers. You
will need to choose the appropriate decibel range on the meter (see the owner’s
manual for help with this). If your meter allows you to choose the weighting, set it to
‘C weighting’. Use the meter at your preferred seating position as close to ear level
as possible. Make sure to point the meter towards the ceiling. Then, play a test tone
through each speaker, one at a time, and note the reading on the meter. Adjust the
volume on each speaker so that they are all similar, with the surround and rear
speakers being slightly louder front speakers. The center channel speaker should be
about 2 db louder than the right and left speakers. In the end, a little experimentation
will yield the best results. Trust your ears to make the final judgment.
