Make sure ‘OK’ is selected, then press

ENTER.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while
the receiver outputs more test tones to
determine the optimum receiver settings for
channel level, speaker distance, and Acoustic
Calibration EQ.

Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this
is happening. It may take 3 to 7 minutes.

• If you selected a STAND.WAVE Multi-

Point setup (in step 2), you will be asked to
place the mic at the 2nd and 3rd reference
points before finally placing it at your main
listening position.

The Auto MCACC Setup procedure is

completed and the Advanced MCACC menu
reappears automatically.
The settings made in the Auto MCACC Setup
should give you excellent surround sound from
your system, but it is also possible to adjust
these settings manually using the Manual
MCACC
setup menu (starting below) or
Manual SP Setup menu (starting on
page 93).

You can also choose to view the settings by
selecting individual parameters from the
MCACC Data Check screen:

Speaker Setting – The size and number of

speakers you’ve connected (see page 94
for more on this)

Channel Level – The overall balance of

your speaker system (see page 82 or 95 for
more on this)

Speaker Distance – The distance of your

speakers from the listening position (see
page 82 or 96 for more on this)

2

Standing Wave – Filter settings to control

lower ‘boomy’ frequencies (see page 84 for
more on this)

Acoustic Cal EQ – Adjustments to the

frequency balance of your speaker system
based on the acoustic characteristics of
your room (see page 84 for more on this)

Press RETURN after you have finished checking
each screen. When you’re finished, select
RETURN to go back to the HOME MENU.

Be sure to disconnect the microphone from
this receiver upon completion of the Auto
MCACC Setup.

Note

1 • Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm will

end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup on page 93.
• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting
should be accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
• If Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing
environment, we recommend adjusting the settings manually.

2 Since the distance measurements have been set according to the sound characteristics of your speakers, there are

cases where (for optimal surround sound) the actual distance may differ from the speaker distance setting.
