buttons to select the setting you want

and

settings, see

Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ
manually

Before manually adjusting the Acoustic
Calibration EQ, we recommend copying the

A.

CH

or the

F.ALG

settings from the auto setup

above (or from

Automatically setting up for

surround sound (MCACC)

on page 9) to one of

the custom settings. Instead of just a flat EQ
curve, this will give you a reference point from
which to start (see

Copying your Acoustic

Calibration EQ settings

above for how to do

this).

1

Select ‘

C1 ADJ

’ or ‘

C2 ADJ

’ from the

Manual MCACC setup menu.

2

Use

/

and

ENTER

to select which

method you want to use to adjust the overall
frequency balance.

It is best to choose whichever one you copied
to the custom setting in

Copying your Acoustic

Calibration EQ settings

above.

A. CH ADJ

– All the speakers can be set

independently so no special weighting is
given to any one channel. When adjusting,
test tones will sound for each individual
channel.

F.ALG ADJ

– Speakers are set in

accordance with the front speaker
settings. The sound of the test tone will
alternate between the left front (reference)
speaker and the target speaker.

3

Use

/

to select the channel you want

and adjust to your liking.

Use the

/

buttons to select the frequency

and

/

to boost or cut the EQ. When you’re

finished, use the

/

buttons to select the

channel display (for example

R EQ

for the right

channel or

SB EQ

for the surround back

channel) then

/

to proceed to the next

channel.

• The front speakers can’t be adjusted if you

selected

F.ALG ADJ

.

• The

OVER!

indicator shows in the display if

the frequency adjustment is too drastic
and might distort. If this happens, bring the
level down until

OVER!

disappears from

the display.

Tip

• Changing the frequency curve of one

channel too drastically will affect the
overall balance. If the speaker balance
seems uneven, you can raise or lower
channel levels using test tones with the
‘trim’ band (

TRM

shows in the display).

Use

/

to select

TRM

then use

/

to

raise or lower the channel level for the
current speaker.

4

When you're finished, press

RETURN

.

Press

RETURN

once more to go back to the

Manual MCACC setup menu.

Checking your Acoustic Calibration EQ
settings

After you have completed an automatic or
manual Acoustic Calibration EQ adjustment,
you can check the

ALL CH

,

F.ALIGN

and

CUSTOM1/2 settings in the display.

1

Select ‘EQ CHECK’ from the Manual

MCACC setup menu.

2

Use

/ and ENTER to select the setting

you want to check.

• It is useful to do this while a source is

playing so you can compare settings.
