How Do I Adjust the Sound?

Adjusting Speaker Levels

You can use the Sound menu to temporarily adjust the speaker levels of your center speaker, surround speakers, and subwoofer. For example, if a particular movie has dialog that’s hard to understand, you can temporarily increase the center channel volume just for that movie. For more information on adjusting speaker levels permanently, see Chapter Two: Setting Up Remote Control unit in the Connections and Setup Guide.

1.Press the SOUND key on Remote Control unit repeatedly until the speaker name to be adjusted is displayed.

How Do I Adjust the Sound?

Adjusting the Input Level

If the front panel CLIP indicator will flash red continually, lower the analog input level for the source device you’re listening to. (Setting the proper input level eliminates distortion that occurs if a source device’s output level is too high. Occasional brief flashing of the CLIP indicator is okay).

1.Select the input to be adjusted (see “Selecting the Inputs” on page 27).

2.Press the SOUND key on the receiver or Remote Control unit repeat- edly until Analog Level (ANLG INPUT) is displayed.

4.Select one of the three input levels; 0 dB, -3 dB and -6 dB. (The dB is the unit expressing the amplitude of sound.)
