Fine Channel Level
• Default setting: 0dB (all channels)
You can achieve better surround sound by
properly adjusting the overall balance of your
speaker system. The following setting can help
you make detailed adjustments that you may
not achieve using the
Quick surround sound
setup on page 11.
1 Select ‘ CH LEVEL’ from the Manual
MCACC setup menu.
You’ll hear test tones from each speaker in
turn. Since the left speaker is the main
reference speaker, the level is fixed and cannot
be changed.
Caution
• The test tones used in the System Setup
are output at high volume (the volume
increases to
-18dB automatically).
2 Use / (cursor left/right) to select each
channel in turn and adjust the levels ( +/–
10dB ) as necessary.
Use / (cursor up/down) to adjust the
volume of the selected speaker to match the
reference speaker. When it sounds like both
tones are the same volume, press
(cursor
left) to continue to the next channel.
• For comparison purposes, the reference
speaker will change depending on which
speaker you select.
• If you want to go back and adjust a
channel, simply use / (cursor left/
right) to select it.
3 When you're finished, press RETURN.
You will return to the Manual MCACC setup
menu.
Fine Channel Distance
• Default setting: 3.0 m (all channels)
For proper sound depth and separation with
your system, it is necessary to add a slight bit
of delay to some speakers so that all sounds
will arrive at the listening position at the same
time. The following setting can help you make
detailed adjustments that you may not achieve
using the
Quick surround sound setup on
page 11.
1 Select ‘CH DISTN.’ from the Manual
MCACC setup menu.
2 Use / (cursor up/down) to adjust the
distance of the left channel from the listening
position then press
ENTER .
3 Use / (cursor left/right) to select each
channel in turn and adjust the distance as
necessary.
Use
/
(cursor up/down) to adjust the delay
of the selected speaker to match the reference
speaker. The delay is measured in terms of
speaker distance from
0.1 to 9.0 meters.
Listen to the reference speaker and use it to
measure the target channel. From the listening
position, face the two speakers with your arms
outstretched pointing at each speaker. Try to
make the two tones sound as if they are
arriving simultaneously at a position slightly in
front of you and between your arm span.
When it sounds like the delay settings are
matched up, press
(cursor right) to confirm
and continue to the next channel.
• For comparison purposes, the reference
speaker will change depending on which
speaker you select.
