ADJUSTING SPEAKER OUTPUT LEVELS This section explains how to adjust speaker output levels using the test tone generator. When this adjustment is complete, the output level heard at the listening position should be the same from each speaker. This is important for best performance of the digital sound field processor, and the various decoders (Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS). Note • Since this unit cannot enter the test mode while headphones are connected to this unit, be sure to unplug the headphones from the SILENT jack when using the test tone. Using the test tone Use the test tone to balance the output levels of the speakers. Note • The adjustment of each speaker output level should be made at your listening position using the remote control. j, i TEST VIDEO 1 CODE SET SHIFT CD DVD AMP HALL JAZZ ROCK ENTERTAINMENT 1 2 3 4 SETUP ANGLE SPORTS MONO MOVIE MOVIE 1 MARKER MOVIE 2 5 6 7 8 /DTS PLAY MODE REPEAT SELECT MATRIX 6.1 9 0 >-10 TOP MENU LEVEL GROUP MENU SET MENU PRESET ABCDE A-B STEREO CANCEL PAGE MUTE CH CH ENTER PRESET TEST ON SCREEN B.

The test tone is heard (in order) from the LEFT (front left speaker), CENTER (center speaker), RIGHT (front right speaker), R SUR. (rear right speaker), L SUR. (rear left speaker), and the SUBWOOFER (subwoofer). The tone is produced for about 2 seconds from each speaker. LEFT RIGHT SUBWOOFER CENTER L SUR. R SUR. 4 Adjust the level of the effect speakers using j/ i so that it matches the level of the front speakers. While adjusting, the test tone is heard from the selected speaker. Note • To adjust the level of the front speakers, use VOL +/- on the remote control. 5 When adjustment is complete, press TEST to stop the test tone. y • It is not necessary to readjust the speaker levels once they are set (as long as you do not change the speakers). You can enjoy listening to or watching the input source at the desired volume simply by pressing VOL +/- on the remote control. • If the output level of the effect speakers (center, rear left, and rear right) cannot be increased enough to match the level of the front speakers, set "1E F. Level" on SET MENU to -10 dB (see page 61). This setting decreases the front speaker output level to about one-third of the normal level. After you have set "1E F. Level" on the SET MENU to -10 dB, adjust the levels for the center and rear speakers again. Notes • If "1A CENTER" on the SET MENU is set to NON and the center speaker is not connected, the center channel sound is automatically output from the front left and right speakers. • If "1C REAR LR" on the SET MENU is set to NON, the output level of the rear left and right speakers cannot be adjusted in step 4. The test tone will be circulated skipping the rear right and left speakers. • If "1D BASS" on the SET MENU is set to FRONT, the test tone will be circulated skipping the subwoofer. 20
