Adjusting Speaker Levels with the Test Tone

English

It’s important that all speakers can be heard equally at the listening position. The TSS-15 has a built-in test tone for adjusting the level of each speaker.

Notes:

The test tone cannot be used while a pair of headphones is connected.

The Night listening mode cannot be used while the test tone is being output.

The test tone can be used with the Virtual Surround func- tion (see page 16).

3 Press the [TEST] button.

The test tone is output by each speaker for 2.5 seconds in the following order: front left, center, front right, sur- round right, surround left, subwoofer.

The TSS-15’s CINEMA DSP buttons indicate which speaker is currently outputting the test tone, as shown below.

Note:

If the test tone is too quiet, turn up the TSS-15 amplifier’s VOLUME control. If it’s too loud, turn it down.

4 While the test tone is being output by a speaker, use the VOLUME Up [+] and Down [–] buttons to adjust its level.

While the level is being adjusted, the test tone will con- tinue to be output by the same speaker. When you stop adjusting the level, the test tone will be output by the next speaker in the order stated above.

Notes:

The level of each speaker is shown by the volume level indicators on the TSS-15 (–6, –4, –2, 0, +2, +4, +6).

The front left and right speaker levels cannot be set above 0.

To reset all speakers to their default levels, while the test tone is being output, press the TSS-15 amplifier’s [MODE] button for two seconds.

5 When you’ve finished adjusting the level of each speaker, press the [TEST] button again to turn off the test tone.
