I was attempting to calibrate my speakers with
Video Essentials. My receiver is a Kenwood 407.
I have had the receiver for several months and have
watched dozens of movies so I do have the receiver
properly set up.
I started by using the 'setup'
feature on the receiver to set the decibal levels
for each speaker back to 0 (on the Kenwood they're
indicated as Rch Cch Lch RS LS; previously I just
went by an 'ear' setting to set these values; the Kenwood
puts out its own test tones in this mode)
When VE started to put out its test tones, I used the
'sound' feature on the Kenwood to try and adjust the
individual speakers. However, using the 'sound' feature
only the Cch, RS, and LS are available to be modified.
I can't figure out how to get to the right/left fronts
to adjust their levels. The receiver does indicate
Dolby Digital mode while VE plays. Is my only choice to
just set the center and rears with VE, then use the Kenwood
test tones to match the R/L fronts with the centers db level?
