Trim Menu

This menu allows you to adjust the individual volume level of your speak- ers "on-the-fly." Although careful cali- bration is key to a good home theater, the trims allow fine adjustment of the current program playing. The trims add or subtract from the reference levels set during calibration using the Speaker Calibration menu. Recalibrat- ing will reset these on-the-fly trims to zero.

The trims do not exceed +10 dB and are not less than -20 dB. The trim dB levels appear in the front panel display during adjustment.

The center, rear and sub trims can also be adjusted using Page 2 of the remote's TGP-5 menu (see page 26).

TRIM MEMORY

If ON, the trims are stored in mem- ory and are recalled during power turn on. If OFF, the trim setting will be lost when the power is turned off.

Note: There are separate subwoofer trims for Dolby, DTS and two-channel modes:

Dolby Technologies

When you play discs encoded in Dolby Digital and adjust the subwoofer trim, the TGP-5 re- members that setting and uses it the next time you play these discs.

DTS

When you play a DTS disc and adjust the subwoofer trim, the TGP-5 remembers that setting and uses it the next time you play a DTS disc.

Two-Channel

This is true for all two-channel modes as a group: if you play a CD or the tuner, etc., and use Stereo, Dolby Pro Logic, DTS Neo:6 or Party, and adjust the subwoofer trim, then that setting will be used when any 2 channel source is played in future.
