Fine Speaker Distance
• Default setting:
10.0 ft.
(3.0 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
Manual speaker setup
below.
1
Select ‘Fine SP Distance’ from the Manual MCACC
setup menu.
The volume increases to the reference level.
2
Adjust the distance of the left channel from the
listening position.
After pressing
ENTER
, test tones will be output.
3
Select each channel in turn and adjust the
distance as necessary.
Use
/
to adjust the delay of the speaker you selected
to match the reference speaker. The delay is measured in
terms of speaker distance from
0.5
to
45.0
feet.
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
ENTER
to confirm and continue to the next
channel.

Professional Acoustic Calibration EQ
Acoustic Calibration Equalization is a kind of speaker
equalizer. It works by measuring the acoustic
characteristics of your listening room and turning the
ambient environment into a natural state to reproduce
the source sound as it was originally recorded. This is an
equalizer that enables a ‘flat’ setting.
This setting minimizes the undesirable reverberation of
your listening room based on the sound directly coming
from the speakers. You can select a correction time
period during the automatic calibration.
If you’re not satisfied with the automatic adjustment
provided in
Automatically setting up for surround sound
(Auto MCACC)
on page 8, you can also adjust these
settings manually to get a frequency balance that suits
your tastes.
