11The Advanced MCACC menu

!EQ OFF – You will see the reverb characteristics of your listening area without the equalization performed by this receiver (before calibration).

!EQ ON – You will see the reverb characteristics of your listening area with the equalization performed by this receiver (after calibration). Note that the EQ response may not appear entirely flat due to adjustments necessary for your listening area.

—The calibration corresponding to the currently selected MCACC preset will be used when EQ ON is selected. To use another MCACC preset, press MCACC to select the MCACC memory you want to store.

—After auto calibration with EQ Type

:SYMMETRY (Full Auto MCACC, etc.), the graph for the inferred reverb characteristics can be displayed by selecting Reverb View. To display the actually measured reverb characteristics after EQ calibration, measure with

EQ ON.

When the reverb measurement is finished, you can select Reverb View to see the results on-screen. See Professional Calibration EQ graphical output on page 76 for troubleshooting information.

4If you selected ‘Reverb View’, you can check the reverb characteristics for each channel. Press RETURN when you’re done. The reverb characteristics are dis-

played when the Full Auto MCACC or Reverb Measurement measurements are conducted.

Use k/l to select the channel, frequency and calibration setting you want to check. Use i/j to go back and forth between the three. The reverb characteristics graph before and after EQ calibration can be displayed by select- ing Calibration : Before / After. Note that the

markers on the vertical axis indicate decibels in 2 dB steps.

5If ‘Advanced EQ Setup’ is selected, select the MCACC memory to be stored, then enter the desired time setting for calibration, and then select START.

!To specify the place where the MCACC memory is to be stored, press MCACC to

select the MCACC memory you want to store. Based on the reverb measurement above, you can choose the time period that will be used for the final frequency adjustment and calibration. Even though you can make this setting without reverb measurement, it is best to use the measurement results as a reference for your time setting. For an optimal system calibration based on the direct sound coming from the speakers, we recommend using the 30-50mssetting. Use k/l to select the setting. Use i/j to switch between them.

Select the setting from the following time periods (in milliseconds): 0-20ms,10-30ms,20-40ms,30-50ms,40-60ms,50-70ms and 60-80ms. This setting will be applied to all channels during calibration.

When you’re finished, select START. It will take about 2 to 4 minutes for the calibration to finish. After the Acoustic Calibration Equalization is set, you are given the option to check the settings on-screen.

Checking MCACC Data

At the procedure of Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on page 25 , the procedure of Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page 60 or after fine-adjusting at Manual MCACC setup on page 62 , you can check your calibrated settings using the GUI screen.

1Press on the remote control, then press HOME MENU.

A Graphical User Interface (GUI) screen appears on your TV. Use i/j/k/l and ENTER to navigate through the screens and select menu items. Press RETURN to exit the current menu.

2Select ‘MCACC Data Check’ from the Home Menu.

3Select the setting you want to check.

!Speaker Setting – Used to check the settings of the speaker systems. See Speaker Setting on page 64 for more on this.

!Channel Level – Used to check the output level of the different speakers. See Channel Level on page 64 for more on this.
