Acoustic Calibration EQ
Acoustic Calibration Equalization is a kind of
room equalizer for your speakers (excluding
the subwoofer). It works by measuring the
acoustic characteristics of your room and
neutralizing the ambient characteristics that
can color the original source material. This
provides a ‘flat’ equalization setting. If you’re
not satisfied with the automatic adjustment,
you can also adjust these settings manually to
get a frequency balance that suits your tastes.
Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ
automatically
If you have already completed Automatically
setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on
page 8, ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN
(below) should already be set. Therefore, if you
want to adjust your settings manually, you can
skip to
Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ
manually on page 41.
1 Select ‘EQ AUTO Setting’ from the
Manual MCACC setup menu.
• Make sure the microphone is connected.
• If you’re using a subwoofer, it is
automatically detected every time you
switch on the system. Make sure it is on
and the volume is at the middle position.
• See Other problems when using the Auto
MCACC Setup on page 10 for notes
regarding high background noise levels
and other possible interference.
2 Wait for the EQ AUTO Setting to finish.
As the receiver outputs test tones, the
frequency balance is adjusted automatically
for the following settings:
• ALL CH ADJUST – A ‘flat’ setting where all
the speakers are set individually so no
special weighting is given to any one
channel.
• FRONT ALIGN – All speakers are set in
accordance with the front speaker settings
(no equalization is applied to the front left
and right channels).
You return to the Acoustic Cal EQ setup menu
after the Acoustic Calibration Equalization is
set.
Copying your Acoustic Calibration EQ
settings
If you want to manually adjust the Acoustic
Calibration EQ (see
Setting the Acoustic
Calibration EQ manually on page 41), we
recommend copying the ALL CH ADJUST or
the FRONT ALIGN settings from the EQ AUTO
setup above (or from Automatically setting up
for surround sound (MCACC) on page 8) to one
of the custom settings. Instead of just a flat EQ
curve, this will give you a reference point from
which to start.
