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, A. CH ADJ and F.ALG ADJ (below) should already be set. Therefore, if you want to adjust your settings manually, you can skip to Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ manually below.
1Select ‘EQ A. SET’ 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 during Auto MCACC on page 9 for notes regarding high background noise levels and other possible interference.
2Wait for the EQ Auto Setup to finish.
As the receiver outputs test tones, the frequency balance is adjusted automatically for the following settings:
•A. CH – All Channel Adjust is a ‘flat’ setting where all the speakers are set individually so no special weighting is given to any one channel.
•F.ALG – Front Align Adjust balances the overall sound so that all speakers are set in accordance with the front speaker settings (no equalization is applied to the front left and right channels).
You will 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 below), we recommend copying the A. CH or the F.ALG settings from the EQ A. SET setup above (or from Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 8) to one of the custom (C1 or C2) settings. Instead of just a flat EQ curve, this will give you a reference point from which to start.
1Select ‘EQ COPY’ from the Manual MCACC setup menu.
