Test Tone / Channel balance
Channel balance
Your receiver is equipped with a test signal generator for balancing the channels. As the signal "travels" from channel to channel, adjust the level controls until each channel plays at the same loudness level.

Hearing Comfort & Well-Being
•Do not play your headset at a high volume. Hearing experts advise against continuous extended play.
•If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce volume or discontinue use.
Level adjustment & surround channel level expectation
Even though you adjust the surround channel to be as loud as the others on the test signal, you'll find that on actual program material the surround chan- nel is usually much lower than the front. Don't be tempted to readjust the surround level; program pro- ducers use surround mostly for subtle atmospheric and ambience, and only rarely for special effects. A good surround mix doesn't call attention to itself; if it did, it would soon become distracting.
