Adjusting the speaker volume

The test tone feature lets you set the volume of your

equal performance, you don’t have to adjust the
speaker volume.)
Using the controls on the remote lets you adjust the
volume level from your listening position.
1Press TEST TONE on the remote.
You will hear the test tone from each speaker
sequentially.
2Adjust the volume levels so that you hear the test
tone from each speaker at the same volume level
when you are in your listening position:

control on the front of the main unit.

Adjusting the delay time

You can make the surround sound more effective by
delaying the output from the rear speakers (delay

within the range of 15 to 30 ms. For example, if you’ve
placed the rear speakers in a large room or apart from
your listening position, set the delay time shorter.
