Setting Up for Surround Sound

Acoustic Calibration EQ

This setting is a kind of room equalizer for your speakers. You can select a frequency balance between your speakers that suits your personal tastes. This feature also allows you to increase the amount of a certain frequency in the soundtrack, which will have the effect of hearing more (or less) bass, mid-range or treble. When you use Acoustic Calibration EQ (see p.50) you can toggle between two variations (ALL CH ADJ and FRONT ALIGN) of this setting. Both are set here. If continuing from CHANNEL LEVEL go to step 1. If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in “Setting Up for Surround Sound“ (p.35) first.

FRONT ALIGN mode (front speaker curve): All speakers (except for the subwoofer) are set in accordance with the settings of the FRONT speak- ers. This setting allows the listener to enjoy a sound balance defined by the front speakers (the main speakers for home theater).

The frequency balance is set automatically by the receiver (see page 15) and both types curves are adjusted this way.
