Re: Sound Level Meter V.S. Pioneer Advanced MCACC


Start with moving your room and speakers, within what works for your setup, until everything sounds its best.

I start with the auto calibration, double check distance and sound levels with a tape measure and a meter (either one, analog is typically easier to use), and then take a listen.

Try it with the MCACC both on and off, use a CD, not MP3s. Listen for non-boomy bass, clear and detailed mids and highs, and a nice wide sound stage. Whichever sound better to you, on or off, use that.


Listen to the Real HT Info Podcast at http://realht.info, or on iTunes.

Also, listen right here on The Home Theater Shack. Just use the web applet on the front page.
