Abstract

See full text

A test signal generator (10) outputs a test signal which is obtained by cutting off a high-frequency component from a white noise signal. A signal switching device (18) selectively outputs either one of a positive-phase signal of the test signal and a negative-phase signal of the test signal, in response to a switching operation of the user. A selector (16) selectively outputs either one of the test signal and a musical sound signal to speaker terminals (26, 28). The test signal is reproduced while the selector (16) is connected to the test signal side. At this time, the test signal is output as it is from one channel. A signal which is obtained by selectively outputting either one of the positive-phase signal of the test signal and the negative-phase signal of the test signal is reproduced from the other channel. If, when the test signal is positive-phase, the sound is localized between the left and right loudspeakers, the connection polarities of the left and right loudspeakers is attained. If, when the test signal is negative-phase, the sound is localized between the left and right loudspeakers, coincidence of the connection polarities of the left and right loudspeakers is not attained (i.e., connection polarity of one of the loudspeakers is reversed).
