You can quickly adjust settings you frequently use, such as tone adjustments, etc.
Operation:
You can make the settings on the TV screen while playing something. Press on the remote controller to display the AV Adjust menu. Note that there is no display on the TV screen when the input selector is "CD", "TV", "PHONO", "FM", or "AM", so follow the main unit's display while doing the operations.
Select the item with the cursor / buttons of the remote controller and press ENTER to confirm your selection.
Use the cursors to change the settings.

To exit the settings, press .
Bass :
Enhance or moderate the bass range of the speaker.
Treble :
Enhance or moderate the treble range of the speaker.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Direct or Pure Direct.
Center :
Adjust the speaker level of the center speaker while listening to some sound.
Subwoofer 1 / Subwoofer 2 :
Adjust the speaker level of the subwoofer while listening to some sound.
The adjustment you made will be reset to the previous status when you turn the unit to standby mode.
MCACC Memory :
From MCACC Memory 1 to 3 where speaker settings calibrated with "Full Auto MCACC" or "Manual MCACC" are saved, select which Memory to use.
MCACC EQ :
Enable or disable the equalizer function that corrects for distortion caused by the acoustic environment of the room.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Pure Direct.
Reflex Optimizer :
Enhance the reflection effect of Dolby enabled speakers from the ceiling.
This setting can be selected when "System Setup" - "Speaker" - "Configuration" - "Height 1 Speaker"/"Height 2 Speaker" is set to "Dolby Speaker".
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Pure Direct.
Standing Wave :
Select whether to enable or disable the standing wave control calibrated in "MCACC Pro" - "Manual MCACC" - "Standing Wave.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Pure Direct.
Phase Control:
Correct phase disturbance in the low range to enhance the bass. This enables you to achieve powerful bass reproduction that is faithful to the original sound.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Pure Direct.
When "Phase Control" is set to "Full Band":
Along with the Phase Control function, the Full Band Phase Control function is also enabled. The Full Band Phase Control function corrects for group delay (the difference between phase and timing) between speakers when speaker units are divided into multiple parts, such as tweeter and woofer sections, and furthermore it lines up the phases of the connected speakers so the unit can achieve more accurate reproduction across the full range (full band) and across all channels. Furthermore, if the "Front Align" calibration type has been selected and Full Auto MCACC was performed, the phases of speakers other than the front speakers are corrected to match the frequency phase characteristics of the front speakers.
"Full Band" cannot be selected if Full Auto MCACC has not been performed.
Phase Control + :
Except for discs made according to the phase control standard, the lower frequency range on discs is recorded later than the other ranges. This adjusts the phase for such discs. If you select "Auto", the polarity and correlation is also detected and adjusted, not just the delay in low frequency.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Pure Direct.
LFE Mute Level :
Adjust the low-frequency effect (LFE) level for Dolby Digital series, DTS series, Multichannel PCM, and DSD signals.
Theater Filter :
Adjust the soundtrack that was processed to enhance its high pitch range, in order to make it suitable for home theater. This function can be used in the following listening modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Surround, Dolby TrueHD, Multichannel, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS Neural:X, DTS Express, and DSD.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Direct or Pure Direct.
Sound Delay :
If the video is behind the audio, you can delay the audio to offset the gap. Different settings can be set for each input selector.
This has no affect if the listening mode is Pure Direct and the input signal is analog or DSD.
Sound Retriever:
Improve the quality of the compressed audio. Playback sound of lossy compressed files such as MP3 will be improved. The setting can be separately set to each input selector. The setting is effective with 2 ch signals with a sampling frequency of 48 kHz or less. The setting is not effective in the bitstream signals. This function works in the Auto Surround, Stereo, Mono, Extended Stereo, and Extended Mono listening modes.
Speakers:
When Speaker B are used, you switch output between Speaker A/B/A+B.
Note that sound is not output from the surround back speaker during Speaker A+B output.
HDMI Out :
Allows you to select the HDMI jack to output video signals from "MAIN", "SUB", and "MAIN+SUB".
Audio Scalar :
By selecting "Auto", "Hi-bit 32", "Upsampling", and "Digital Filter" are each automatically set to the optimum values so that you get the high-quality playback of music files and CDs. The setting can be separately set to each input selector. Select "Manual" if you want to manually adjust "Hi-bit 32", "Upsampling", and "Digital Filter".
Hi-bit 32 :
By expanding the dynamic range of digital audio signal sources such as CDs, DVDs, and BDs, it is possible to achieve a smoother and more refined sound. The setting can be separately set to each input selector. This can be set when the sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz or more.
This cannot be set if "Auto" is selected for "Audio Scalar".
Upsampling :
By increasing the sampling frequency of PCM 2 channel audio by a factor of 2 or 4, you can achieve high-quality sound reproduction. The setting can be separately set to each input selector. This can be set when the sampling frequency is between 44.1 kHz and 96 kHz. This function works in the Direct, Pure Direct, and Stereo listening modes.
This cannot be set if "Auto" is selected for "Audio Scalar".
Digital Filter :
You can switch the type of digital filter in the AUDIO DAC (digital analog converter). You can choose "Slow" (gives the sound a soft and fluid feel), "Sharp" (gives the sound more structure and firmer feel), or "Short" (gives the sound a feeling of a quick start and moving forward). The setting can be separately set to each input selector. This can be set when the sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz or more.
This cannot be set if "Auto" is selected for "Audio Scalar".
DRC :
Make small sounds easily heard. It is useful when you need to reduce the volume while watching a movie late night. You can enjoy the effect only when playing Dolby series and DTS series input signals.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Direct or Pure Direct.
The setting cannot be used in the following cases.
–If "Loudness Management" is set to "Off" when playing Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD
–When the input signal is DTS:X and "Dialog Control" is other than 0 dB
Center Spread :
Adjust the width of the sound field of the front channel when playing in the Dolby Surround listening mode. To spread the width of the sound field to the left and right, set to "On". To concentrate sound in the center, set to "Off".
Depending on the speaker settings, this becomes "Off".
Dialog Control :
You can increase the dialog portion of the audio in 1 dB steps up to 6 dB so that you can make dialog easier to hear over background noise.
This cannot be set for content other than DTS:X.
The effect may not be selectable with some content.
Dialog Enhancement :
By adjusting the localization of the center elements, you can make it easier to hear dialog in movies or give more prominence to the vocals in music. If you are using front high speakers, you can select from "1" (low) to "4" (high).
This cannot be set for DTS:X playback.
It cannot be set if the listening mode is Direct or Pure Direct.
