ADVANCED OPERATIONS

You can use the test tone feature to manually balance your
speaker levels. Please note that this operation will override
the level adjustments made in “AUTO SETUP” (page 26),
“Speaker level” (page 57) and “Manually adjusting
speaker levels” (page 51). Use the test tone to set speaker
levels so that the volume from each speaker is identical
when heard from your listening position.

You cannot activate the test tone if headphones are connected to
the PHONES jack. Remove the headphones from the PHONES
jack.

upwards so that the meter is in the listening position. With the
meter set to the 70 dB scale and to C SLOW, calibrate each
