Test Tone
The test tone is used to calibrate the level settings of the
speakers. A static noise will be heard cycling, in order, from
the front left, center, right and both surround speakers.
Using the remote control, adjust the Center and Surround
levels until the volume of all the speakers is the same during
the test. The test tone is used to calibrate the performance
of the system. When listening to an actual recording, the
volume level of the surround channels is generally much
lower than that of the front channels. In fact, when listening
to a movie, virtually all of the dialogue and a substantial
number of effects are reproduced through the center channel.
