Setting the Acoustic Calibration EQ automatically
When you perform the Auto MCACC setup as specified in
Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto
MCACC)
on page 8, the correction is automatically done
with the time period already selected (when TYPE1 is
selected for EQ TYPE , the calibration is set only for ALL
CH ADJUST ). In this setup, you can select any of the time
periods for EQ correction.
1 Select ‘Advanced EQ Setup’ from the Manual
MCACC setup menu.
• The Advanced EQ setup overwrites the settings
already set for ALL CH ADJUST and/or FRONT
ALIGN . To keep these settings intact, save the data in
CUSTOM1 / CUSTOM2 as specified in Copying your
Acoustic Calibration EQ settings below.
• Make sure the supplied microphone is connected.
• See Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on
page 10 for notes regarding high background noise
levels and other possible interference.
2 Select ‘TYPE1’ or ‘TYPE2’.
Use / to select the setting.
When TYPE1 is selected, the calibration is set for ALL CH
ADJUST ; when TYPE2 is selected, the calibration is set
for both ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN .
3 Select the time setting you want to use for
calibration. 1
You can choose the time period that will be used for the
calibration. Use
/ to select the time setting.
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.
For an optimal system calibration based on the direct
sound coming from the speakers, we recommend using
the
30~50ms setting.
4 Press ENTER, then the calibration starts
automatically.
5 Wait for the Advanced EQ Setup to finish.
As the receiver outputs test tones, the frequency balance
is adjusted automatically for the following settings:
• 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).
It will take about 1 to 3 minutes for the calibration to
finish.
The display returns to the Manual MCACC setup menu
automatically 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 Advanced EQ Setup
above (or from Automatically setting up for surround
sound (Auto 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.
Note
1 For multi-channel audio sources, the localization of the reproduced sound image and the sound linkage of the speakers depend on the direct sound
including the early-reflected sound. In this setup, the earlier time settings (
0~20ms , 10~30ms , etc.) implement calibration closer to the direct sound with
less consideration of the reverb characteristics; the later time settings ( 60~80ms , 50~70ms , etc.) incorporate the reverberant sound. Select your favorite
setting for the optimum results.
