Bass Peak Level - Pioneer Elite VSX-56TXi Operating Instructions Manual

Advanced setup
• If No Data is displayed, you will need to make a
reverb measurement using the Auto Pro or Reverb
Measurement setup option.
7 If you selected 'Advanced EQ Setup', input the
time setting you want to use for calibration, then
select 'Start'.
After checking on the reverb measurement above, you
may want to manually 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 20–40ms
setting.
