Operating The DigitalTheater 6000 System

Initial Setup – Test To n e
B e f o re using the system, the relative speaker levels should be calibrated for optimum perf o rm a n c e .
This is easily accomplished by using the system's built-in test tone to match the levels of the fro n t
and rear channels. The test tone button on the remote control generates the test tone for calibrat-
ing the speakers.
P ress test tone, and the test tone is heard
1
moving clockwise from speaker to speaker
at 2 second intervals. The order should be
left front, center, right front, right rear and
left re a r. (No test tone is heard from the
s u b w o o f e r. Adjust the subwoofer level inde-
pendently of the other channels accord i n g
to personal taste or to compensate for the
e ffects of room placement). If the tone does
not move continuously from speaker to
speaker then one or more speakers is not
connected to the correct output on the sub-
w o o f e r.
As the test tone rotates around the speakers,
you may notice that some speakers are louder
or softer than others. This is not due to any
defect, but to the diff e rence in room acoustics
at diff e rent locations. The speaker levels
should be individually adjusted so they all
appear to have the same loudness at the lis-
tening position.
