Adjusting the speaker output levels

SUBWFR LVL (subwoofer output level),

FRONT L LVL (left front speaker output level),

FRONT R LVL (right front speaker output level),

CENTER LVL (center speaker output level),

SURR L LVL (left surround speaker output level),

SURR R LVL (right surround speaker output level),

S BACK L LVL (left surround back speaker output level),

S BACK R LVL (right surround back speaker output level)

You can adjust the speaker output levels.

Adjust all the speakers’ output levels so that you can listen to the sounds from all the speakers at the same level.

Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each source.

Adjustable range: –10 (dB) to +10 (dB) (in 1 step intervals)

Initial setting: 0 (dB) for all speakers

NOTES

If you have selected “NO” for a speaker (see page 22), the output level for the corresponding speaker is not adjustable.

If you have selected “<1SPK>” for “S BACK OUT” (see page 22), “S BACK LVL” appears instead of “S BACK L LVL” and “S BACK R LVL.”

While using the headphones, you can adjust only the left and right front speakers’ output level.

From the remote control:

1Press TEST to check the speakers’ output balance.

“TEST FL” starts flashing on the display, and a test tone comes out of the speakers clockwise.

You can adjust equalization patterns in five frequency bands (center frequency: 63 Hz, 250 Hz, 1 kHz, 4 kHz, 16 kHz) for the front speakers.

Once you have made an adjustment, it is memorized for each source.

Adjustable range: –8 (dB) to +8 (dB) (in 2 dB intervals)

Initial setting: 0 (dB) for all bands

When adjustment is made, the DIGITAL EQ indicator lights up on the display.

If no adjustment is required, set all the frequency bands to “0 (dB).”
