The unit is equipped with a built-in test signal generator called a noise sequencer for easy balance adjustment of all 5 channels. The sequencer outputs a noise signal that “travels”from channel to channel, enabling the simple adjustment of sound level to achieve, at the listening position, the same apparent loudness from each channel.
