•It is not necessary to readjust the speaker level once it is set as long as you do not change the speakers. You can enjoy listening to or watching the input source with the desired volume by adjusting the volume key.

•You can increase the output levels of the front effect speakers to +10 dB. If the output level of these speakers is lower than that of the main speakers even after you have increased the output level of these speakers up to +10 dB, set “1G MAIN LEVEL” on the SET MENU to –10 dB (see page 64). This setting decreases the main speaker output level to about one- third of the normal level. After you have set “1G MAIN LEVEL” on the SET MENU to –10 dB, adjust the levels for the center and rear speakers again.
