Fine Speaker Distance
• Default setting: 3 m (all channels)
For proper sound depth and separation with
your system, it is necessary to add a slight bit
of delay to some speakers so that all sounds
will arrive at the listening position at the same
time. The following setting can help you make
detailed adjustments that you may not achieve
using the

sound (MCACC) on page 10.

left channel from the listening position then
press

delay is measured in terms of speaker distance
from
0.1 to 9.0 meters.
Listen to the reference speaker and use it to
measure the target channel. From the listening
position, face the two speakers with your arms
outstretched pointing at each speaker.
Try to make the two tones sound as if they are
arriving simultaneously at a position slightly
in front of you and between your arm span.
When it sounds like the delay settings are
matched up, press
(cursor down) to
confirm and continue to the next channel.
• For comparison purposes, the reference
speaker will change depending on which

Acoustic Calibration EQ
Acoustic Calibration Equalization is a kind of
room equalizer for your speakers (excluding
the subwoofer). It works by measuring the
acoustic characteristics of your room and
neutralizing the ambient characteristics that
can color the original source material. This
provides a ‘flat’ equalization setting. If you’re
not satisfied with the automatic adjustment,
you can also adjust these settings manually to
get a frequency balance that suits your tastes.
Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ
automatically
If you have already completed Automatically
setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on
page 10, A. CH ADJ and F.ALG ADJ (below)
should already be set. Therefore, if you want to
adjust your settings manually, you can skip to
Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ manually
