Before You Use Your
Receiver

Notes

• The front balance, rear balance, center level, and rear level are

shown in the display during adjustment.

• Although these adjustments can also be made via the front

panel using the LEVEL menu (when the test tone is output, the
receiver switches to the LEVEL menu automatically), we
recommend you follow the procedure described above and
adjust the speaker levels from your listening position using the
remote control.

When setting the volume levels for each speaker

Let’s assume that you have matched the sound levels of all the
speakers using the test tone. Although this lays the foundation
for high quality surround sound, it may be necessary to make
further adjustments while listening to playback of actual
software. This is because most software contains center and rear
channels recorded at slightly lower levels than the two front
channels.
When you actually play back software recorded in multi channel
surround, you will notice that increasing the center and rear
speaker levels produces a better blend between the front and
center speakers and greater cohesion between the front and rear
speakers. Increasing the level of the center speaker about 1 dB,
and the rear speakers about 1~2 dB is likely to produce better
results.
In other words, in order to create a more cohesive soundstage
with balanced dialog, we recommend that you make some
adjustments while playing your software. Changes of only 1 dB
can make a huge difference in the character of the soundstage.
