  1. System Setup and Connection
    I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong place or if it's a repeat. I did some searching and did not find what I was looking for. I am using a Pioneer sc-lx801 in a 5.1 configuration. I start with full auto mcacc. It sets up my speakers as large. I change them to small with xover at...

    So my cats have decided to chew through my MCACC microphone cable for my Pioneer sc-lx83. The AV receiver is dated 2011 and Im having trouble getting hold of a replacement for it due to the age. The part number is APM7009 and I have literally gone through every link google has given me. The...

    I recently bought the SC95. I ran MCACC Full Auto with Expert setting and the results were bad. I don't get much bass and I have to literally set the MV to -9 or so for a movie. My speakers are set to small and a crossover of 80hz. If I remember correctly I choose All Ch for the MCACC...

    A comparison between Dirac Live and Pioneer's MCACC Pro has been done when testing a miniDSP DDRC-88A and the independent reviewer has run and posted the REW measurements of the results here...

    I have been using a Pioneer VSX-521-K receiver for about 2.5 yrs now. I did not bother to run the MCACC, because my surround speakers (floor standing Polk R50) were placed right beside my Tsi 400 mains. This was due to an odd shaped room, therefore I did not expect much surround effects. So I...

    So I've got a dilemma I am hoping you can help me work through. I have an older Integra DTR 5.9 receiver. Its only got 4 HDMI inputs (HDMI 1.3). It also only has Audyssey 2EQ. I am driving a 5 channel set of Polk LSi speakers, which are 4 ohm and require dedicated amps, which I am using a...

    Many weeks ago Emotiva was poised to become the first manufacturer to release an audio product featuring HDMI 2.0, claiming it had been incorporated into their highly anticipated XMC-1 – the company subsequently retracted their claim. Ready for round two? Today, Pioneer announced they will be...
  8. REW Forum
    I have Question for the experts. During Pioneer's MCACC AVR tuning, after the full auto, you can select Manual Mode and within that category select EQ Professional. One of the options is to select a sample delay for the readings that system will take during the process. Pioneer suggests and...
  9. REW Forum
    Hey all. I've taken measurements in the past with REW. At that time I had a completely different setup. I upgraded this last month and I'm looking to take some measurements again. What am I trying to accomplish? What we all are, Sonic fidelity! :-) I'm hoping to achieve a smooth response and get...

    Does anyone know with certainty if MCACC adds in 10 DB to the LFE channel calibration?

    I got the following information from Pioneer. What is disappointing to me, is that the 9 band equalizer is graphic, not parametric. When I did these adjustments manually, a graphic equalizer was useful, but when I could look at the frequency response on an oscilloscope, there were some sharp...

    Hi guys, I have a Pioneer SCLX71, i have been using it fine until today for the first time I thought I'd try the MCACC out. It went through all the stages, all test tones ect, and then finished. After that there was no sound coming out. Have been trying to run MCACC again, but the test tones...
  16. System Setup and Connection
    When I run the speaker distance program on MCACC it always calculates my subs as being farther away than the are. It correctly sets my 7 channels... Just not the sub. Right now my sub is roughly 10 ft 11 in away from the microphone and the system is saying it's 14 ft 2". What gives, here...

    I own an Elite vsx 21thx I'm having trouble figuring out how to apply Advanced EQ calibrations to different memory presets. What I would like to do is to be able to hear what different EQ Calibration time periods sound like. Just for example, I ran Auto MCACC for Symmetry and saved it to...
