Setting up the receiver

Press TEST TONE to output the test

tone.

The test tone is output in the following order
(depending on the speaker setting):

• If you don’t hear a test tone from one of

your speakers, please refer to

Speaker

setting

on page 43 and

Surround back

speaker setting

on page 44 to make sure

you have correctly specified your speaker
setup.

Press MASTER VOLUME +/– to adjust

the volume to an appropriate level.

Use LEVEL +/– to adjust the speaker

levels in turn.

You should hear the test tone at the same
volume from each speaker when seated in the
main listening position. The channel level
range is ± 10 dB.

When you’re done, press TEST TONE to

turn off the test tone.

The receiver returns to the Standard mode.

• The speaker volume can be adjusted

without outputting the test tone by
pressing

CH SELECT

and then using

LEVEL +/–

. However, you can only adjust

the level of the speakers currently active
in the mode you’re listening to. You can
set separate levels for the

STANDARD

STEREO

and

DVD 5.1 ch

modes, as well

as for each

ADVANCED SURROUND

mode.

• Since the subwoofer transmits an ultra-

low frequency its sound may seem quieter
than it actually is.

• Using test tones to set up your speaker

system will overwrite any previous
settings you had for the

STANDARD

ADVANCED SURROUND

modes.
