MASTER VOLUME

The VOLUME knob on the top of the right satellite controls the master volume. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the volume and counterclockwise to decrease the volume.

CENTER VOLUME

When the CENTER button on the top of the right satellite is pushed, the VOLUME knob controls the volume of the center speaker. If the center speaker is not in use, this action will control the level of the center information from the left and right satellites. Adjust this control as necessary to achieve a balanced sound.

SURROUND VOLUME

When the SURROUND button on the top of the right satellite is pushed, the VOLUME knob controls the volume of the left and right surround speakers. Adjust this control as necessary to create the optimal balance of surround information. The surround volume control operates in the same manner even on computers that only have stereo outputs when the switch on the back of the subwoofer is in the 2/4-channel position.
