You can adjust the volume of each speaker while listening to an input source. These tem- porary adjustments are cancelled when the HTX-22HD is set to Standby.

Use the remote controller’s [CH SEL] button to select each speaker, and use the Left and Right []/[ ] buttons to adjust the volume.

You can adjust the volume of each speaker from –12 dB to +12 dB (–15 dB to +12 dB for the subwoofer).
