3 Press TEST TONE to output the test
tone.
The test tone is output in the following order
(depending on the speaker setting):
If you don’t hear a test tone from one of
your speakers, please refer to
Speaker
setting
on page 43 and
Surround back
speaker setting
on page 44 to make sure
you have correctly specified your speaker
setup.
4 Press MASTER VOLUME +/– to adjust
the volume to an appropriate level.
5 Use LEVEL +/– to adjust the speaker
levels in turn.
You should hear the test tone at the same
volume from each speaker when seated in the
main listening position. The channel level
range is ± 10 dB.
6When you’re done, press TEST TONE to
turn off the test tone.
The receiver returns to the Standard mode.
The speaker volume can be adjusted
without outputting the test tone by
pressing
CH SELECT
and then using
LEVEL +/–
. However, you can only adjust
the level of the speakers currently active
in the mode you’re listening to. You can
set separate levels for the
STANDARD
,
STEREO
and
DVD 5.1 ch
modes, as well
as for each
ADVANCED SURROUND
mode.
Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra-
low frequency its sound may seem quieter
than it actually is.
Using test tones to set up your speaker
system will overwrite any previous
settings you had for the
STANDARD
or
ADVANCED SURROUND
modes.
