Setting individual channel levels

Use to set the relative volume of each channel as you find
necessary for balanced surround sound.
RECEIVER
CH SELECT
1 Use MASTER VOLUME to adjust the volume to an
appropriate level.
2 Press RECEIVER then TEST TONE to output the
test tone.
The test tone is output in the following order (from
speakers that are switched on and are appropriate for the
current listening mode):
• L – Front left
• C – Center
• R – Front right
• RS – Right surround
• LS – Left surround
• SW – Subwoofer
3 Use the (cursor up/down) buttons to adjust
speaker levels so that you hear the test tone at the
same volume from each speaker when seated in
your main listening position.
• The channel level range is ± 10 dB.
4 Press RECEIVER then TEST TONE to turn off the
test tone.
• Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra-low
frequency its sound may seem quieter than it actually
is. Be careful not to turn up your subwoofer too much
and check the volume with an actual source.
• The subwoofer volume is best controlled with the
volume control on the subwoofer unit itself.
• The speaker volume can be adjusted without
outputting the test tone by pressing CH SELECT then
using the (cursor up/down) buttons. This level
setting mode is automatically exited after 5 seconds
of inactivity.
• The default setting is 0 dB for all channels.
