Adjusting the current channel level

After adjusting each channel level with test tone, adjust the channel levels either according to the program sources or to suit your tastes.

You can adjust the current channel levels as desired. These adjusted levels are just memorized into user’s memory ("CAL"), not into preset memory("MOVIE" for movieo source, "MUSIC" for music source).

1.Press the CHANNEL LEVEL button.

• Then the memory mode ("CAL", "MOVIE", etc) is displayed for several seconds.

• When the memory mode or channel level disappears, press this button again.

ENGLISH

2. Select the desired channel.

• Each time these buttons are pressed, the corresponding channel is selected as follows:

CAL (or MOVIE, etc.) FL C FR SR

<LFE> SUB SL(SB) or (SBL SBR)

DTS LFE or Dolby Digital LFE

( ): Possible depending on whether the surround back channel is set to "2 Channel" or "1 Channel (Left)".

< >: Possible only when the digital signals from Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby TrueHD or DTS HD program sources that include LFE signal are input.

• Depending on the speaker settings("No", etc.) and surround mode, etc., some channels cannot be selected.

• When the SPEAKER button is set to off, only the Front Left, Front Right(and LFE) channels can be selected.

3. Adjust the level of the selected channel as desired.

• The LFE level can be adjusted within the range of -10 ~ 0 dB and other channel levels within the range of -15 ~ +15 dB.

• In general, we recommend the LFE level to be adjusted to 0 dB.(However, the recommended LFE level for some early DTS software is -10 dB.) If the recommended levels seem too high, lower the setting as necessary.

4. Repeat the above steps 2 and 3 to adjust each channel level.
