Balancing the Speaker System
To reproduce sound effects as they were intended, the
speakers must be correctly balanced.
To balance the speakers using the test tone, all speakers must
be connected to your receiver. Your receiver must be in the
Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby 3 Stereo Mode.
To balance the speakers
1. Press the TEST TONE button on the receiver front panel. The
front panel displays show the current settings as the receiver
generates “pink noise” and applies it automatically at
2-second intervals to the left main channel, center channel,
right main channel, and left and right rear channels
(simultaneously), in that order.
2. As the pink noise is generated, go to the spot in the room
where you are most likely to be when listening to your
system. The rear Surround sound and center speaker should
be adjusted to equal the level of output from the left and
right main speakers.
3. Make adjustments by pressing the REAR•CENTER button,
and then the + or -button on your remote control. The
output from the selected speaker(s) is adjusted accordingly.
The adjustments will be indicated on the receiver’s display as
they are made.
Each time you press the + or - button on your remote
control to adjust a channel, the receiver provides you with
2 more seconds of pink noise to that channel before moving
on to the next. Also, the front panel displays reflect your
adjustments.
4. Press the TEST TONE button again to end the test.
You may not need to check or adjust these levels again unless
you move your system, rearrange the speakers, or change your
preferred seating location in the room.
OPERATING the Receiver
Fine tuning is best performed
with the remote control so that
adjustments can be made from
the viewing or listening area.
