Changing the Channel Level

The default channel level settings are 0 dB for each speaker.
You can change the speakers' sound distribution to suit your
surround sound needs. For example, if you are closer to the left
front speaker than the right front speaker, the left front speaker
might seem "louder" than the right one. To adjust it, you must
change the channel level for one or both speakers until the
sound evens out.
Follow these steps to change the channel level.
