Speaker Level Calibration
With the Level Calibration settings, you can adjust the
level of each speaker while listening to the test tone so
that the volume of each speaker is the same at the listen-
ing position.
Note:
• The test tone is output at the standard level for THX,
which is 0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you nor-
mally listen at volume settings below this, be careful
because the test tone will be much louder.
Note:
• Speaker levels can also be adjusted by using the dedi-
cated buttons on the remote controller. Press the [Test
Tone] button to output the test tone. Use the [CH Sel]
button to select each speaker, and use the [Level–] and
[Level+] buttons to adjust the level.
1 Press the [Receiver] Remote
Mode button, followed by the
[Setup] button.
The main menu appears onscreen.
2 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select “2. Speaker
Setup,” and then press [Enter].
The Speaker Setup menu appears.
3 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ]
buttons to select “4. Level Cali-
bration,” and then press [Enter].
The Level Calibration screen appears
and the pink noise test tone is output by
the front left speaker.
Note:
• Levels cannot be adjusted for speak-
ers set to No or None in the Speaker
Configuration (page 101).
These settings are set automatically by the Automatic
Speaker Setup function (see page 55).

buttons to adjust the level.
Levels can be adjusted from –12 to

so that the volume of the test
tone from each speaker is the
same.
If you’re using a handheld sound level
meter, adjust the level of each speaker
so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listen-
ing position, measured with C-weight-
ing and slow reading.
