This menu allows you to adjust the individual volume level of your speakers “on-the-fly.” Although careful calibration is key to a good home theater, the Trims allow fine adjustment of the current program playing. The Trims add or subtract from the reference levels set during calibration using the Speaker Calibration menu.

Recalibrating will reset these on-the-fly trims to zero.

Note: The Trim adjustments do not exceed +/-10 dB
