You can use the speaker calibration feature to ensure that the
volume level that reaches your seating position is the same for
each loudspeaker (speaker calibration is not required for two-
channel systems). Calibration can be done by ear or by using an
SPL (Sound Pressure Level) meter.
To perform speaker calibration:
• Switch on your power amplifier(s) and subwoofer, if one is
connected.
• Select C

in your system in a clockwise direction and will be indicated
on the display.
• When the signal reaches a loudspeaker which is louder or
quieter than the other loudspeakers, use the / keys on
the handset to trim the volume as required. A few seconds
after the
or key has been released the signal will
continue its clockwise direction.

Notes:
By default, ANALOG 1 is assigned to an AKURATE CD player, and
ANALOG 6 to a turntable.
The ANALOG GROUP uses the ANALOG 1, 2 and 3 inputs, therefore
if a source is assigned to ANALOG GROUP you cannot also assign a
source to ANALOG 1, 2 or 3. Conversely, if a source is assigned to
ANALOG 1, 2 or 3, you cannot assign a source to ANALOG GROUP.
The KNEKT option will not be available unless the KNEKT item in
