–15dB to 0dB to +12dB in 1 dB steps.
Note
• These settings cannot be calibrated in either of the following
cases:
– a pair of headphones is connected.
– the "Audio TV Out" setting is set to "On"
– "HDMI Control(RIHD)" is set to "On"
you're listening through your TV speakers.
– the AV receiver is muted.
• Speakers that you set to "No" in the "Speaker Configuration"
cannot be selected (➔ page 44).
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX, which is
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.

by using the Home menu are saved in this menu
(➔ page 39).
Tip
• If you're using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of
each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position,
measured with C-weighting and slow reading.
