Set the SPL meter to C weighting and slow response. After initializ- ing, the LEFT channel dB setting on the screen blinks, and you hear band limited white noise through the left loudspeaker. This noise con- tinues for two seconds and then moves clockwise to the next loud- speaker in the system.

While the individual channel on screen is blinking, use the direction keys to adjust each loudspeaker’s setting until the SPL meter reads 75 dB.

Repeat this process with the remaining loudspeakers. When all the loudspeakers are adjusted, press the previous key twice to return to the main menu screen.

The adjustments must be made while the channel on screen is blinking.

Press the enter kety to choose MANUAL NOISE SEQUENCE. The manual noise sequence screen appears.

While the individual channel on screen is blinking, press the enter key (84), then use the direction keys to adjust each loudspeaker’s setting until the SPL meter reads 75 dB.

Press enter to set each selection, then use the direction keys to move to the next loudspeaker.

Repeat this process for all loudspeakers. Press the previous key once to return to the calibration room setup screen.

Any speaker not configured in the SPEAKER SETUP menu displays N/A (not available) for the dB specification.

Press the enter key to choose PROGRAM MATERIAL. The program mater- ial screen appears.

The program material option requires external program material such as a test disc. The source plays, simultaneously, from all configured loudspeakers. Use the enter and direction keys to individually adjust loudspeaker balances based on your listening preferences rather than SPL readings. If all channels are not present in the source material, they will not be heard during this process.
