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 on page 40.

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 8) 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 on page 40 for how to do this).

1Select ‘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 on page 40.

ALL CH ADJUST – All the speakers can be

 

set independently so no special weighting

English

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

Deutsch

settings. The sound of the test tone will

 

alternate between the left front (reference)

 

speaker and the target speaker.

 

3Select the channel(s) you want and adjust to your liking.

selected FRONT ALIGN.

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

to select TRIM

then use

to raise or lower the

channel level for the current speaker.
