Settings for the Speakers

[SPEAKER SETUP]

To obtain the best possible surround sound, set for the size of the speakers you have connected and their distance from your listening position. Then use the test tone to adjust the level and the balance of the speakers to the same level.

Select [SPEAKER SETUP] in the Setup Display. For details, see “Using the Setup Display” (page 81).

The default settings are underlined.

Note

You cannot operate these setup items when you connect headphones to the system.
