4 Press the CURSOR F or G button to set the distance between the center speaker and listening position.

Example: When the distance is set to 10.0 feet for the center speaker

The distance changes in units of 1 foot or 0.1 foot each time the button is pressed. Select the value closest to the measured distance.

When “Step” is selected, you can select the unit of “1 ft (0.1 m)” or “0.1 ft (0.01 m)”.

When “Default Yes” is selected, then press the CURSOR F button to reset to the default values.

The difference of the distances set for the various speakers must be 20.0 ft (6.0 m) or under. If an inappropriate distance is set, “RELOCATE BLINKING SP!” is displayed. In this case, move the relevant speaker to the proper position as indicated by the displayed value.

Advanced Setup – Part 2

Setting the Channel Level

•Use this setting to adjust so that the playback level between the different channels is equal.

•From the listening position, listen to the test tones produced from the speakers to adjust the level.

•The level of each channel should be adjusted to 75 dB (C- weighted, 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.

1 Press the CURSOR D or H button to select “Channel Level” at the “Speaker Setup” menu, then press the ENTER button.

• The “Channel Level” screen appears.

2 Press the CURSOR F or G button to select “Auto” or “Manual”.

Auto:

Adjust the level while listening to the test tones produced automatically from each speaker.

Manual:

Select the speaker from which you want to produce the test tone to adjust the level.

Example: When the “Auto” mode is selected
