This procedure lets you adjust the sound balance
between the front, center, and rear speakers using the
built-in test tone generator. When this adjustment is
performed, the sound output level heard at the listening
position will be the same from each speaker. This is
important for the best performance of the built-in Dolby
Pro Logic surround decoder.
The adjustment of each speaker output level
should be done at your listening position with the
remote control transmitter. Otherwise, the result
may not be satisfactory.
