Output Level Adjustment Output level adjustment is a key part of the configuration process for any surround-sound product. It is particularly important for a Dolby Digital receiver such as the AVR 500, as correct outputs will ensure that you hear sound tracks in their proper place with the proper directionality and intensity. IMPORTANT NOTE: Listeners are often confused about the operation of the surround channels. While some assume that sound should always be coming from each speaker, most of the time there will be little or no sound in the surround channels. This is because they are only used when a movie director or sound mixer specifically places sound there to create ambiance, a special effect or to continue action from the front of the room to the rear. When the output levels are properly set it is normal for surround speakers to operate only occasionally. Artificially increasing the volume to the rear speakers may destroy the illusion of an enveloping sound field that duplicates the way you hear sound in a movie theater or concert hall. Before beginning the adjustment process make certain that all speaker connections have been properly made. The system volume should be set to the level that you will use during a typical listening session. Finally, make certain that the Balance Control 7 is set to the center �12 o�clock� position. To adjust and calibrate the output levels, follow these steps. For accurate calibration, it is a good idea to make these adjustments while seated in your favorite listening position: 1. Put the AVR 500 in the Dolby Pro Logic mode by pressing the Dolby Pro Logic Selector � on the front panel or by pressing the Surround Mode Selector q on the remote, followed by the � / ¤ 31 31
