Advanced Setup-Continued Speaker Level Calibration These settings are set automatically by the Automatic Speaker Setup function (see page 40). With these settings, you can adjust the level of each speaker while listening to the test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the same at the listening position. Notes: • The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of the AV receiver is muted or a pair of headphones is connected. • Because the AV receiver supports THX, the test tone is output at the standard level of 0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at volume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will be much louder. 1 RECEIVER Press the [RECEIVER] REMOTE MODE button, followed by the [SETUP] button.

The level can be adjusted from -12 to +12 dB in 1 dB steps (-15 to +12 dB for the subwoofer). Repeat step 4 so that the volume of the test tone from each speaker is the same. If you're using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of each speaker so it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position, measured with C-weighting and slow reading. Press the [SETUP] button. Setup closes. Note: • The speaker levels can also be changed by using the dedicated buttons on the remote controller. Press the [TEST TONE] button to output the test tone. Use the [CH SEL] button to select each speaker, and use the [LEVEL-] and [LEVEL+] buttons to adjust the level. 73
