If ‘Advanced EQ Setup’ is selected, enter the

desired time setting for calibration. Press

to proceed

to the next screen, and then select START.
Based on the reverb measurement above, you can
choose the time period that will be used for the final
frequency adjustment and calibration. Even though you
can make this setting without reverb measurement, it is
best to use the measurement results as a reference for
your time setting. For an optimal system calibration
based on the direct sound coming from the speakers, we
recommend using the

30~50ms setting.

Use

/ to select the channel, frequency, and time

setting. Use

/ to switch between them.

You can switch between your connected speakers
(excluding the subwoofer), and display the
measurements for the following frequencies:

63Hz,

125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, 8kHz and
16kHz.

Select the setting from the following time periods (in
milliseconds):

0~20ms, 10~30ms, 20~40ms, 30~50ms,

40~60ms, 50~70ms and 60~80ms. This setting will be
applied to all channels during calibration.

When you’re finished, select

START. It will take about 2

to 4 minutes for the calibration to finish.

After the Acoustic Calibration Equalization is set, you are
given the option to check the settings on-screen.

Data Management

This system allows you to store up to six MCACC presets,
allowing you to calibrate your system for different
listening positions (or frequency adjustments for the

same listening position).

This is useful for alternate

settings to match the kind of source you’re listening to
and where you’re sitting (for example, watching movies
from a sofa, or playing a video game close to the TV).

From this menu you can check your current settings,
copy from one preset to another, name presets for easier
identification and clear any ones you don’t need.
