Adjusting the sound

On the remote control:

1 Press TEST.

Check if you can hear the sounds through all the speakers at the equal level.

“TEST TONE” and the corresponding signal indicator starts flashing on the display window, and the test tone comes out of the speakers in the following order;

] Front left speaker (a) ] Center speaker (b) ] Front right speaker (c) ] Surround right speaker (i) ] Surround left speaker (g) ] (back to the beginning)

2 Adjust the speaker output levels (–10 to +10).

Adjust the center speaker and surround speaker levels as much as the sound from the front speakers. Use one of the following buttons to adjust each speaker level.

CENTER +/– for the center speaker

SURR-L +/– for the surround left speaker

SURR-R +/– for the surround right speaker

]DSP EFFECT 4 ] DSP EFFECT 5 ] (back to the beginning)

As the number increases, the selected mode will be more effective. (Normally set the level to “DSP EFFECT 3”.)

You can output the test tone in any surround mode, or even when surround mode is not activated.

Speaker output levels whose source signal indicator is lit can be adjusted without pressing TEST.

When selecting DVD as the source, you can also adjust the speaker output levels using the choice menu. (A pg. 50)
