Then, press the DOWN 1<4 or UP a>1 button. Each time one of the buttons is pressed, the delay time changes as shown below. 20ms* 30ms To change the sound levels after adjusting the balance with the noise sequencer The sound levels of the center or surround speakers can be adjusted during playback of laser discs or video software. 1 Press the MANUAL SELECT (TEST) button on the remote control once or twice to select “C (center) or “S” (surround). 2 While the “C” or “S” is displayed, press the DOWN 1<< or UP a>1 button on the remote control to adjust the volume.
