Does anyone have any experience performing an on-screen operation such as speaker levels without a television?


I know, now I feel like a moron.


Thanks

Depends upon the brand but like Harman/Kardon AVRs indicate the channel trim level on its front panel display so it can done without a video display connected...

It is an older Pioneer ELITE from 95. so no on screen display

If i took the receiver to another room to setup, then unplugged it and brought it back, would it keep the same settings?

Chris, yes, it should. The time varies, but the owner's manual should mention it.

Thanks guys.

I finally got the nerve unhook everything, and take it in here to adjust the levels.

What should I set the sub level at? 0dB? or +10 ?? or what

I've got the receiver crossover set at 100 Hz. My fronts are set to large (despite the accepted feeling about this) and the rears are let to small.


The mains are Klipsch RF3II and the surrounds ss-1.

Sub- SVS 2231 PCi.


Thanks for your input.

What is the "goal" when calibrating your system.

I am new to the whole SPL meter deal, so I have no clue on this.

Should I be shooting for 75dB all the way around?


Thanks. I think I will just bring a tv in my room. That makes more sense.

I run my HT room from an HTPC, so I had to get a "TV-in" card, and hook up the monitor out from the AVR to the PC, get the OSD up in a window then make the changes.


I really wish they would design these things so that you have to connect the AVR to a display device to make some setting changes.
