It is also recommended that the deviations of the distance from the listening position to L and R channel speakers (front left (FL) and front right (FR), surround left (SL) and surround right (SR), surround back left (SBL) and surround back right (SBR) is less than 2 ft (60 cm).

Operating from the main remote control unit

Adjusting with the main remote control unit using the test tones is only possible in the “Auto” mode and only effective in the STANDARD (Dolby/DTS Surround) and HOME THX CINEMA modes. The adjusted levels for the different modes are automatically stored in the memory.

GAdjusting using test tonesH

qPress the TEST button.

Test tones are output from the various speakers.

w Use the o p button to adjust so that the volume is equal for all speakers.

e When the adjustments are completed, press the TEST button again.

•The level of each channel should be adjusted to 75 dB (Cweighted, slow meter mode) on a sound level meter at the listening position. If a sound level meter is not available adjust the channels by ear so the sound levels are the same. Because adjusting the subwoofer level test tone by ear is difficult, use a well known music selection and adjust for natural balance.

•When the GUI menu “Speaker Configuration” – “Surround Back” setting (vpage 30) is set to “1spkr”, the surround back speaker display is set to “Surround Back”.

•Speakers set to “None” in the “Speaker Configuration” settings are not displayed.

•“Surround” can be set when GUI menu “Speaker Configuration” –“Surround B” is set to “Large” or “Small” (vpage 30).

•When using surround speakers, be sure to adjust the volume of the different speakers.

•When “Channel Level” is adjusted, the adjusted values are set for all the surround modes. To adjust the channel level separately for the different surround modes, use the operation see page 74.
