2.Turn on the power to all other components.

3.Press the POWER switch to the ON position. The power indicator on the rear panel lights up in green.

4.Play a source that contains low-frequency sounds. Adjust the amplifier’s volume control to the desired listening level.

using the amplifier’s volume control.

•If you replace the front speakers (NX-E270) with other speakers, you must again balance the subwoofer and surround speaker volume.
