Compared to when Before is selected, with After there is less difference in the delay between frequency bands and the group delay between the different channels is uniform, allowing you to check the full band phase control effect. No Data is displayed if the selected group delay has not been measured. ! The Full Band Phase Control function does not work for Dolby enabled speakers since they are full-range speakers. Data Management This system allows you to store up to six MCACC presets, allowing you to calibrate your system for different listen- ing positions (or frequency adjustments for the same listening position). This is useful for alternate settings to match the kind of source you're listening to and where you're sitting (for example, watching movies from a sofa, or playing a video game close to the TV). From this menu you can copy from one preset to another, name presets for easier identification and clear any ones you don't need. !
