Setting the relative volume level of each channel

Default setting: 0db

For best surround sound playback, you should set the relative channel levels from the main listening position. You can set seperate levels for each surround mode.

1Press RCV.

2Press TEST TONE to output the test tone.

The test tone is output in the following order (depending on the speaker setting):

FL C FR

SR

SW SL SB*

*VSX-D811S only

If you don’t hear a test tone from one of your speakers, please refer to Speaker setting on page 39 to make sure you have correctly specified your speaker setup.

3Press MASTER VOLUME +/– to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.

4Use LEVEL +/- to adjust the speaker levels in turn.

You should hear the test tone at the same volume from each speaker when seated in the main listening position. The channel level range is ± 10 dB.

5When you’re done, press TEST TONE to turn off the test tone.

The speaker volume can be adjusted without outputting the test tone by pressing CH SELECT and then using LEVEL +/–.

Test tone is only output in Standard modes.

Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra- low frequency its sound may seem quieter than it actually is.
