balance with the other inputs to the main speaker channels so the Cinema 11a can
make the balance between them. The subwoofer is the only channel in a normal
system that has an independent volume control on it, and if it is set at too high or too
low a setting, the Cinema 11a will not be able to balance the channels for subwoofer
(low bass) and the other channels. If you do a set up run, and the subwoofer is too
loud or too soft in comparison to the other channels during set up, then adjust the
sensitivity control on the subwoofer to make the needed change (subwoofer volume
up or down) for your system to balance properly with Auto Set Up.
• During auto set up, it is important that you are not in the way of any speakers and the
microphone. Stand or sit out of the main listening area, and run the system with the
remote control if possible, to avoid interference with the speakers and the
microphone. It is also understood that no music or TV noises should be on in the
room during set up, since this will interfere with the AUTO SET UP function by giving
the microphone other things to listen to besides the test tones it uses.
• WARNING: The set up noise is a bit loud and should not be used at times when it
might disturb others. The test noise is similar to PINK NOISE with equal energy in all
audible octaves of sound.

Note: The speaker check measures the state of use of all speakers whether actually
used or not. For example, if the CEN speaker is not used, the test tone will require
time to go from the FL to the FR; therefore, be careful not to unplug the microphone
or operate the Cinema 11a during this time.
