• If

No Data

is displayed, you will need to make a

reverb measurement using the Auto Pro or Reverb
Measurement setup option.

7

If you selected ‘Advanced EQ Setup’, input the

time setting you want to use for calibration, then
select ‘Start’.

After checking on the reverb measurement above, you
may want to manually 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

20–40ms

setting.

• If

No Data

is displayed, you will need to make a

reverb measurement using the Auto Pro or Reverb
Measurement setup option.

Use the

/

(cursor up/down) buttons to select the

channel, frequency, and time setting. Use the

/

(cursor up/down) buttons to switch between them.

You can switch between your connected speakers
(excluding the subwoofer), and display the
measurements for the following frequencies: 63Hz, 125
Hz, 250Hz, 1kHz, 4kHz and 11.3kHz.

• Note that six bands are available for measurement

and analysis here, but you will only be able to set five
bands when using

Acoustic Calibration EQ

on

page 88. The 1kHz band acts as a reference setting
(to ensure optimal adjustment of the other frequency
settings) for a total of six band adjustment.

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 2–11

minutes for the calibration to finish.

is displayed on-screen after the Acoustic

Bass Peak Level

Some audio sources (for example, Dolby Digital and DTS)
include ultra-low bass tones. Set the bass limiter as
needed to prevent the bass from distorting the sound
from the subwoofer.
