Acoustic Calibration EQ
This receiver lets you choose between two types of ACOUSTIC CAL EQ equalizer curves: ALL CH ADJUST and
FRONT ALIGN, with the former equalizing the speakers individually and the latter equalizing the speakers in
accordance with the front speakers. Features here allow you to put in your own equalizer preferences. To do this use
the DATA COPY feature to copy the settings in ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN modes and paste them into
CUSTOM 1 or CUSTOM 2. You then choose between the ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN types of curves and
increase the amount of a certain frequency in each speaker in accordance with your preferences. When you
playback a source you can choose CUSTOM 1 or CUSTOM 2 to apply your preferences to playback. When setting up
using the ALL CH ADJUST mode you can adjust each speaker individually. With the FRONT ALIGN mode the front
speakers will serve as the reference so you cannot adjust them.
The DATA CHECK feature allows you to see how the settings in ALL CH ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN currently stand.
When you use ACOUSTIC CAL EQ function (see page 49) you can toggle between the two basic settings, ALL CH
ADJUST and FRONT ALIGN, and the variations you set yourself, CUSTOM 1 and CUSTOM 2.
To use the EQ AUTO SETTING feature follow the step
here.
