EQ Type

(only available when the Custom Menu

above is

EQ Pro. & S-Wave

)

– This determines how

the frequency balance is adjusted.

After a single calibration is performed, each of the
following three correction curves can be stored
separately in the MCACC memory.

SYMMETRY

(default)

implements symmetric correction for each pair of left
and right speakers to flatten the frequency amplitude
characteristics.

ALL CH ADJUST

is a ‘flat’ setting where

all the speakers are set individually so no special

weighting is given to any one channel.

FRONT ALIGN

8

sets all speakers in accordance with the front speaker
settings (no equalization is applied to the front left and
right channels).

THX Speaker

(only available when the Custom Menu

above is

ALL

or

Speaker Setting

)

– Select

YES

if you

are using THX speakers (set all speakers to

SMALL

),

otherwise leave it set to

NO

.

Stand.Wave Multi-Point

(only available when the

Custom Menu above is

EQ Pro. & S-Wave

)

– In

addition to measurements at the listening position,
you can use two more reference points for which test
tones will be analyzed for standing waves. This is
useful if you want to get a balanced ‘flat’ calibration

for several seating positions in your listening area.

9

Place the microphone at the reference point
indicated on-screen and note

the last microphone

placement will be at your main listening position:

When you’re finished settings the options, press

RETURN

to go back to the Auto MCACC main setup.

Note

1 Except in cases where you are only adjusting one parameter (i.e. channel level) from the

CUSTOM

setup screen (step 2).

2 If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read through

Surround back speaker

setting

on page 40 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before continuing to step 3.

3 The six MCACC presets are used for storing surround sound settings for different listening positions. Simply choose an unused preset for now (you can
rename it later in

Data Management

on page 46).

4 Note that correction curves are saved only when set to

SYMMETRY

. Select

CUSTOM

to save other correction curves (such as

ALL CH ADJUST

and

FRONT ALIGN

).

ENTER

to activate the demo mode of Auto MCACC. In the demo mode, no settings are saved and no errors occur. When

the speakers are connected to this receiver, the test tone is output repeatedly. Press

RETURN

to cancel the test tone.

EQ Pro. & S-Wave measurement is also taken when ALL is selected. See Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional on page 43 for more on this.

• Either effect of Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional and Standing Wave can be switched on and off in the respective MCACC preset. For details, see

Setting the Audio options on page 68.

• The

FULL BAND PHASE CTRL measurement is also taken when ALL is selected. See Full Band Phase Control on page 45.

7 The

Keep SP SYSTEM option allows you to calibrate your system while leaving your current speaker setting (page 48) unchanged.
