Setting up

Setting separate channel levels for listening modes

• Default setting: 0 dB

In addition to the MCACC setup, you can also set relative channel levels from the listening position using the method below. Using CH SELECT (see tip below), it is also possible to set separate channel levels for each of the listening modes.

3Press MASTER VOLUME +/– to adjust the volume to an appropriate level.

4Use 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.

5When you’re done, press TEST TONE to turn off the test tone.

The receiver returns to the Standard mode.

The test tone is output in the following order (depending on the speaker setting):

L C R RS

SW LS SB

If you don’t hear a test tone from one of your speakers, please refer to Speaker setting on page 44 and Surround back speaker setting on page 45 to make sure you have correctly specified your speaker setup.

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/DVD 7.1 ch modes, as well as for each ADVANCED SURROUND mode.

Test tone is only output in STANDARD or 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.
