you’re using a subwoofer, make sure it is switched
on and set to a comfortable volume level.

Wait for the test tones to finish, then

confirm the speaker configuration in the GUI
screen.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while
the receiver outputs test tones to determine the
speakers present in your setup. Try to be as
quiet as possible while it’s doing this.

ambient noise! or Check microphone.)

noise (see Problems when using the Auto
MCACC Setup
below) and verifying the mic
connection. If there doesn’t seem to be a
problem, you can simply select GO NEXT
and continue.

2 • If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read

through Surround back speaker setting on page 93 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before
continuing to step 4.
• If you have THX-certified speakers, select Return, then select Auto MCACC for the THX Speaker setting. See
Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page 77 for more on this.

3 The six MCACC presets are used for storing surround sound settings for different listening positions. Simply choose

an unused preset for now (you can rename it later in Data Management on page 90).

4 Note that correction curves are saved only when set to SYMMETRY. Select Return, then select Auto MCACC to save

other correction curves (such as ALL CH ADJ and FRONT ALIGN). See Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page 77 for
more on this.

5 Do not adjust the volume during the test tones. This may result in incorrect speaker settings.
