ADJUSTING THE SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS

When reproducing the source encoded with a Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround or DTS, it is important to adjust the sound output level heard at the listening position to the same from each speaker. Therefore, the best performance of these digital sound fields can be obtained. Even when the other sound field is selected, you can enjoy the characteristics of each sound field.

Speaker output levels may be adjusted using the remote control before playback by following the steps.
