Professional Calibration EQ graphical output Symptom Remedy The EQ response displayed in the graphical output following calibration does not appear entirely flat. • There are cases where the graph does not appear flat (even when selecting ALL CH ADJ in the Auto MCACC Setup) due to adjustments made to compensate for room characteristics to achieve optimal sound. • Areas of the graph may appear identical (before and after) when there is little or no adjustment needed. • The graph may appear to have shifted vertically when comparing before and after measurements. EQ adjustments made using the Manual MCACC setup on page 80 do not appear to change the graphical output. • Despite level adjustments being made, the filters used for analysis may not display these adjustments in the graphical output. However, these adjustments are taken this into account by the filters dedicated to overall system calibration. Lower frequency response curves do not seem to have been calibrated for SMALL speakers. • Low frequencies used in bass management (the subwoofer channel) will not change for speakers that have been specified as SMALL in the configuration, or do not output these frequencies. • Calibration is performed, but due to your speakers' low frequency limitations, no measurable sound is output for display.
