same at the listening position.

Note
• These settings cannot be calibrated in either of the following
cases:
– a pair of headphones is connected.
– the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to “On” (

you’re listening through your TV speakers.

page 46).
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX, which is
0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at
volume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will
be much louder.

For the center speaker and subwoofer, the level settings made
by using the Home menu are saved in this menu

Tip
• If you’re using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of
each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position,
measured with C-weighting and slow reading.
Equalizer Settings
With the Equalizer settings, you can adjust the tone of
speakers individually with a 7-band equalizer. The volume
of each speaker can be set.
