BALANCING THE SPEAKER SYSTEM

OPERATING THE RECEIVER

BALANCING THE SPEAKER SYSTEM

To reproduce sound effects as they were intended, the speakers must be correctly balanced.

To balance the speakers using the test tone, all speakers must be connected to your receiver. Your receiver must be in the Dolby* Pro Logic Surround, Dolby 3 Stereo or Hall Mode.

TO BALANCE THE SPEAKERS

1.Press the TEST button on the receiver front panel. The receiver generates “pink noise” and applies it automatically at 2-second intervals to the left main channel, center channel, right main channel, and left and right rear channels (simultaneously), in that order.

2.As the pink noise is generated, go to the spot in the room where you are most likely to be when listening to your system. The rear Surround sound and center speaker should be adjusted to equal the level of output from the left and right main speakers.

3.Make adjustments by pressing the CENTER•REAR button, and then the + or -button on your remote control or the

LEVEL up or down button on the receiver. The output from the selected speaker(s) is adjusted accordingly. The adjustments will be indicated on the receiver’s display as they are made.

Each time you press the + or - button on your remote control or the LEVEL up or down button on the receiver to adjust a channel, the receiver provides you with

4 more seconds of pink noise to that channel before moving on to the next.

4.Press the TEST button again to end the test.

You may not need to check or adjust these levels again unless you move your system, rearrange the speakers, or change your preferred seating location in the room.

Fine tuning is best performed with the remote control so that adjustments can be made from the viewing or listening area.
