Adjusting Output Channels
When playing back multichannel programs, you may want to set the output channel levels to suit your sitting position
relative to the speakers. This is to obtain the desired (balanced) output required for multichannel playback from all
speakers.

Press the SELECT button on your decoder, or press the Output Channel buttons on the remote control, until the LED of the

While the test sound is playing, all Output LEDs on your decoder’s front panel will
blink and only the volume controls will be enabled.

the volume level for each speaker.
Note:You can also activate the test noise if you want to check that your speakers are working, properly connected and placed in the correct
position.
