6. Level Cal (Level Calibration)

This setting is set automatically by

Audyssey MultEQ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup function (➔ page 21).

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

•These settings cannot be calibrated in either of the following cases:

–A pair of headphones is connected.

–The “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (➔ page 53).

–“HDMI CEC (RIHD)” is set to “On” (➔ page 52) and you’re listening through your TV speakers.

–The AV receiver is muted.

Tip

•If you’re using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position, measured with C-weighting and slow reading.

■PL II Music (2ch Input)

These settings apply to only 2-channel stereo sources.

Panorama

`On

`Off

With this setting, you can broaden the width of the front stereo image when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode.

Dimension

`–3to 0 to +3

With this setting, you can move the sound field forward or backward when using the Dolby Pro Logic

IIMusic listening mode. Higher settings move the sound field backward. Lower settings move it forward. If the stereo image feels too wide, or there’s too much surround sound, move the sound field forward to improve the balance. Conversely, if the stereo image feels like it’s in mono, or there’s not enough surround sound, move it backward.

Center Width

`0 to 3 to 7

With this setting, you can adjust the width of the sound from the center speaker when using the Dolby Pro Logic II Music listening mode. Normally, if you’re using a center speaker, the center channel sound is output from only the center speaker. (If you’re not using a center speaker, the center channel sound will be distributed to the front left and right speakers to create a phantom center.) This setting controls the front left, right, and center mix, allowing you to adjust the weight of the center channel sound.
