Advanced Setup —Continued
Speaker Levels
With this function you can adjust the volume of each
speaker so that all speakers can be heard equally at the
listening position.
Speaker levels cannot be set while the
HT-R820THX is muted, headphones are con-
nected, Speaker B is on, or the multichannel
input is being used.
Notes:
• Since the HT-R820THX supports THX, the test
tone is output at the standard level of 0 dB (abso-
lute volume setting 62). If you normally listen at
volume settings below this, be careful because the
test tone will be much louder.
• The volume cannot be adjusted while the speaker lev-
els are being set.
