Using The Test Tone - Yamaha RX-V1500 Mode D'emploi

Using the test tone

You can use the test tone feature to manually balance your
speaker levels. Please note that this operation will override
the level adjustments made in "AUTO SETUP" (page 26),
"Speaker level" (page 60) and "Manually adjusting
speaker levels" (page 54). Use the test tone to set speaker
levels so that the volume from each speaker is identical
when heard from your listening position.
Note
You cannot activate the test tone if headphones are connected to
the PHONES jack. Remove the headphones from the PHONES
jack.
