•ALL CH ADJUST – A ‘flat’ setting where all

the speakers are set individually so no

special weighting is given to any one

channel.

•FRONT ALIGN – All speakers are set in

accordance with the front speaker settings

(no equalization is applied to the front left

and right channels).

You 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 ALL CH ADJUST or

the FRONT ALIGN settings from the EQ AUTO

setup above (or from Automatically setting up

for surround sound (MCACC) on page 9) to one

of the custom settings. Instead of just a flat EQ

curve, this will give you a reference point from

which to start.

1Select ‘EQ Data Copy’ from the Manual

MCACC setup menu.

2Select CUSTOM1 or CUSTOM2 then use

/ to select the setting you want to

copy.

•You can also copy from one custom setting

to another. For more on the ALL CH

ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN settings, see

Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ

automatically above.

3 Select ‘OK’ to copy and confirm.

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 9) 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).

1 Select ‘EQ CUSTOM1 Adjust or EQ

CUSTOM2 Adjust’ from the Manual MCACC

setup menu.

2Select which method you would like to

use to adjust the overall frequency balance.

It is best to choose whichever one you copied

to the custom setting in Copying your Acoustic

Calibration EQ settings above.

•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.
