Speaker Level Calibration
This setting is set automatically by the Automatic
Speaker Setup function (see page 49).
Here you can adjust the level of each speaker with the
built-in 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/AV amplifier is muted.
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX,
which is 0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you nor-
mally listen at volume settings below this, be careful
because the test tone will be much louder.
