First Time Setup—Continued

Speaker Level Calibration

This setting is set automatically by the Automatic Speaker Setup function (see page 38).

Here you can adjust the level of each speaker with the built-in test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the same at the listening position.

Note:

The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of the AV receiver is muted, while a pair of headphones is con- nected, or when using the multichannel input.
