ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS
Notes
• The tonal quality of the center speaker can be adjusted by using
“5 CENTER GEQ” on the SET MENU (see page 61).
• If “1A CENTER SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE, the
center channel sound is automatically output from the left and
right main speakers.
• If “1C REAR L/R SP” on the SET MENU is set to NONE, the
output level of the rear right, left and center speakers cannot be
adjusted in step 3. The test tone will be circulated in the order
of LEFT

• It is not necessary to readjust the speaker level once it is set as
long as you do not change the speakers. You can enjoy listening
to or watching the input source with the desired volume by
adjusting the volume key.
• You can increase the output levels of the effect speakers
(center, left rear and right rear and rear center) to +10 dB. If the
output level of these speakers is lower than that of the main
speakers even after you have increased the output level of these
speakers up to +10 dB, set “1F MAIN LEVEL” on the SET
MENU to –10 dB (see page 60). This setting decreases the
main speaker output level to about one-third of the normal
level. After you have set “1F MAIN LEVEL” on the SET
MENU to –10 dB, adjust the levels for the center and rear
speakers again.
The state of the test tone output is also shown on the
monitor by an image of the audio listening room.
This is convenient for adjusting each speaker level.
Front panel display also indicates from which
speaker the test tone is output in the order of TEST
LEFT
→
TEST CENTER
→
TEST RIGHT
→
TEST R SUR.

TEST REAR CNTR
→
TEST L SUR.
Note
• If the test tone cannot be heard, turn down the volume, set this
unit in the standby mode and check the speaker connections.
