Grab the remote for your vsx1018 and press receiver at the bottom of the remote then press the number zero button (this button acts as the channel level function when remote is in receiver mode) you will then notice that if you repeatedly press the zero button that it will cycle through each channel on the vsx1018 display (L for front left, C for center, R for front right, SR for side right, SBR for sarround back right, SBL for sarround back left, SL for side left, and last but not least SW for subwoofer rca jack output to your sub amp. After you have selected the speaker volume you want change ( SBR and SBL in your case) then push the left or right of the circle that sarrounds the enter button on the remote in order the fine tune the volume for each speaker,and after you are finished setting the volume the way you want then push the return button that is to the lower right of the circle that sarrounds the enter button on the remote. Cool huh!! :-) Oh ya, somthing else that is cool about the vsx1018, you can put music from your computer onto a thumb drive and then plug the thumb drive in the the ipod usb and the music will play!! IE press ipod button on remote and then use the circle to change music tracks.
*Turn off your Dell laptop.
*Connect speakers to the speaker control box.
The speaker control box varies depending on the speaker system you have.
Two-speaker systems will have a female jack on the back of one speaker that you
plug the other into the second speaker. If your system has a sub-woofer, all of
the other speakers will plug into it. The connecting cords are color-coded to
the jacks on the back of the control box.
*Plug an audio cable into the
"Audio-In" port on the back of the control box. If the audio cable is
color-coded, it will be green.
*Plug the
other end of the audio cable into the headphone jack on your laptop.
*Plug the
speakers' power cord into a surge protector to protect your system from power
surges. *Plug the surge protector
into a wall outlet.
*Turn on your speakers and set the volume at a
medium level. Be prepared to turn the volume up or
down after you turn your laptop on.
*Turn on your laptop and confirm that sound is
coming from your speakers.
