Marantz and manual EQ calibration

[ncampbel]

Hi, I was looking into upgrading to atmos and I was looking at Marantz. After poking around in their manual for the AV8802A and looking at their Audyssey Pro manual, it appears you can't manually adjust the parametric EQ filters on each output. Is this true? Seems odd to me coming from Emotiva where you have access to manually set 11 parametrics with adjustable Q per output.

What are my other options considering I'm looking at running 7.1.4 (2 subs) DTS:X/Atmos?

Thanks,

Nathan

If you want to use graphic eq for manual adjustments you can do it for each speaker. To use it you suppose to turn Audyssey multEQ XT32 off. If you use Audyssey XT32 then you cannot make manual EQ adjustments at all.

So with Audyssey multEQ XT32 turned off you can manually set the graphic EQ for each output? Do you know how many bands there are?

You can download the manual and read p.193 and 197, below is snapshot taken from page 197.
