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 powered subwoofer.
• The speaker volume can be adjusted without
outputting the test tone by pressing CH SELECT and
+/ button.
• The default setting is 0 dB for all channels.
• If you have adjusted the channel level using the +
button, even if the master volume is all the way up
you'll never actually get a volume level that is 0 dB
(full volume).
