Advanced Setup—Continued
Speaker Level Calibration
With these settings, you can adjust the level of each 
speaker while listening to the test tone so that the volume 
of each speaker is the same at the listening position.
Notes:
• The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of 
the AV receiver is muted or a pair of headphones is 
connected.
• Because the AV receiver supports THX, the test
tone is output at the standard level of 0 dB (abso-
lute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at 
volume settings below this, be careful because the 
test tone will be much louder.
Note:
• The speaker levels can also be changed by using the 
dedicated buttons on the remote controller. Press the 
[TEST TONE] button to output the test tone. Use the 
[CH SEL] button to select each speaker, and use the 
[LEVEL–] and [LEVEL+] buttons to adjust the level.

and the pink noise test tone is output by 
the front left speaker.

Use the Up and Down [
]/[
]
buttons to select each speaker, 
and use the Left and Right 
[

ume.
The level can be adjusted from –12 to 
+12 dB in 1 dB steps (–15 to +12 dB 
for the subwoofer).
5
Repeat step 4 so that the volume 
of the test tone from each 
speaker is the same.
If you’re using a handheld sound level 
meter, adjust the level of each speaker 
so it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening 
position, measured with C-weighting 
and slow reading.
