Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ manually

Before manually adjusting the Acoustic Calibration EQ, we recommend copying the ALL CH ADJUST or the FRONT ALIGN settings from the auto setup above (or from Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 11) 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).

1Select ‘EQ CUSTOM1 Adjust or EQ CUSTOM2 Adjust’ from the Manual MCACC setup menu.

•ALL CH ADJUST – 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.

•FRONT ALIGN – 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.

Use the

(cursor left/right) buttons to select the

channel.

 

 

Use the

(cursor up/down) buttons to select the

frequency and

(cursor left/right) to boost or cut the

EQ. When you’re finished, go back to the top of the

screen and use the

(cursor left/right) buttons to

select the next channel.

•The front speakers can’t be adjusted if you selected

FRONT ALIGN.

•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

feature. Use

(cursor up/down) to select TRIM

then use

(cursor left/right) to raise or lower the

channel level for the current speaker.

4 When you're finished, press RETURN.

You will return 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 ADJUST, FRONT ALIGN and custom settings using the on-screen display.

1Select ‘EQ Data Check’ from the Manual MCACC setup menu.
