automatically: Auto Speaker Setup

 

 

 

The speaker level settings can be optimized to accommodate your room’s listening conditions so that you can enjoy the ideal surround sound experience. Using the supplied setup microphone, the main unit adjusts the balance of the front speakers, and the volume level of the center and surround speakers automatically.

Keep as quiet as possible during the auto speaker setup. Loud voices, air-conditioning noise, or disturbances caused by the wind may lead to incorrect settings. The speakers output loud test signals during the setup.

Preparation

Turn off the TV before starting the auto speaker setup.

Make sure that “DVD/CD” is selected as the source (page 16), and there are no discs in the trays.

Ensure that the wireless link setting is completed (page 13).

Ensure that headphones are disconnected.

Connect the setup microphone.

Place the microphone at the actual seating position and the same height of hearing level (e.g. on your sofa’s headrest).

The test signal is output from each speaker.

“COMPLETE” will be displayed in the main unit’s display when the setting is completed. Unplug the setup microphone.

To cancel the setup, press and hold [—AUTO] again (“CANCEL” will be displayed in the main unit’s display).

[Note]

The settings will return to default if Auto Speaker Setup is cancelled.

Using sound effects
