ADVANCED OPERATIONS
Using the test tone
You can use the test tone feature to manually balance your speaker levels. Please note that this operation will override the level adjustments made in “AUTO SETUP” (page 24), “Speaker level” (page 50) and “Manually adjusting speaker levels” (page 45). Use the test tone to set speaker levels so that the volume from each speaker is identical when heard from your listening position.

•Use a handheld SPL meter, hold at arms length and point upwards so that the meter is in the listening position. With the meter set to the 70 dB scale and to C SLOW, calibrate each speaker to 75 dB.
•Before outputting the test tone, we recommend that you set the output volume to 0 dB.
Note
You cannot enter test mode if headphones are connected to the PHONES jack. Remove the headphones from the PHONES jack.
