10 The Advanced MCACC menu 5 If 'Advanced EQ Setup' is selected, select the MCACC memory to be stored, then enter the desired time setting for calibration, and then select START. Based on the reverb measurement above, you can choose the time period that will be used for the final frequency adjustment and calibration. Even though you can make this setting without reverb measurement, it is best to use the measurement results as a reference for your time setting. For an optimal system calibration based on the direct sound coming from the speakers, we recommend using the 30-50ms setting. 1c5c.Adv.EQ Setup A/V RECEIVER MCACC : Time Position : EQ Type : STAND.WAVE Multi-P : M1.MEMORY 1 30-50ms SYMMETRY NO 1c5c.Adv.EQ Setup A/V RECEIVER MCACC : Time Position : EQ Type : STAND.WAVE Multi-P : M1.MEMORY 1 30-50ms SYMMETRY NO START START Exit Cancel Exit Cancel Use / to select the setting.
