3 Using the remote control display,

follow the instructions below to
adjust the speaker levels so that you
hear the test tone at the same
volume from each speaker when
seated in your normal listening
position.

NOTE : The volume of the subwoofer tends to sound
lower than it actually is. You may need to adjust the
level after testing with an actual soundtrack.

Next, proceed to CROSSOVER NETWORK below.

Note that it is also possible to set channel levels
temporarily. Go to the AMPLIFIER SUB screen and press
CH LEVEL. Then follow the same procedure as explained
on this page. This function is designed to be used when
you want to change the levels temporarily to hear one
speaker louder. Using this method you can set speaker
levels in different modes, such as 2/dts, STEREO, and
each DSP mode, independently. You should return the
settings to their original state when done. Doing the set up
procedures on this page will erase any temporary/
independent level settings that have been made.
