WARNING: the test tones are very loud!!

ACOUSTIC CAL EQ: All speakers (except for
the subwoofer) are set in accordance with the
settings of the FRONT speakers. You can adjust
each speaker individually to suit your taste. This
setting allows the listener to enjoy a sound
balance defined by the front speakers (the main
speakers for home theater). The front left
speaker will serve as the reference tone. The
front left tone and the target speaker (the one
you are trying to adjust) will sound in turns, so
you can judge which needs to be louder.
