You can achieve better surround sound by properly adjusting the overall balance of your speaker system. The following setting can help you make detailed adjustments that you may not achieve using the Normal surround setting on page 51.

The volume increases to the 0dB reference level.

Caution

• After pressing ENTER, loud test tones will be output.
