Adjusting Speaker Levels With The Test Tone - Yamaha CinemaStation TSS-15 Owner's Manual

Adjusting Speaker Levels with the Test Tone

It's important that all speakers can be heard equally at the
listening position. The TSS-15 has a built-in test tone for
adjusting the level of each speaker.
Notes:
• The test tone cannot be used while a pair of headphones
is connected.
• The Night listening mode cannot be used while the test
tone is being output.
• The test tone can be used with the Virtual Surround func-
tion (see page 16).
