Important

• You will need to first specify the MCACC preset you

want to adjust by pressing MCACC before pressing
HOME MENU (step 2 in Making receiver settings from
the Advanced MCACC menu
on page 77).

• For some of the settings below, you’ll have to connect

the setup microphone to the front panel and place it
about ear level at your normal listening position.
Press HOME MENU to display the HOME MENU
before you connect the microphone to this receiver. If
the microphone is connected while the HOME
MENU
is not being displayed, the display will change
to the Full Auto MCACC under Advanced MCACC.

• See Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on

page 43 for notes regarding high background noise
levels and other possible interference.

• If you’re using a subwoofer, switch it on and turn up

the volume to the middle position.

1

Select ‘Manual MCACC’ from the Advanced

MCACC menu.
See Making receiver settings from the Advanced MCACC
menu
on page 77 if you’re not already at this screen.

2

Select the setting you want to adjust.

If you’re doing this for the first time, you might want to
make these settings in order.

Fine Channel Level – Make fine adjustments to the

overall balance of your speaker system (see Fine
Channel Level
below).

Fine SP Distance – Make precise delay settings for

your speaker system (see Fine Speaker Distance
below).

Standing Wave – Control overly resonant low

frequencies in your listening room (see Standing
Wave
on page 82).

The last two settings are specifically for customizing the
parameters explained in Acoustic Calibration EQ Adjust
on page 83:

EQ Adjust – Manually adjust the frequency balance

of your speaker system while listening to test tones
(see Acoustic Calibration EQ Adjust on page 83).

EQ Professional – Calibrate your system based on

the direct sound coming from the speakers and make
detailed settings according to your room’s reverb
characteristics (see Acoustic Calibration EQ
Professional
on page 83).

Fine Channel Level

• Default setting: 0.0dB (all channels)

You can achieve better surround sound by properly
adjusting the overall balance of your speaker system. You
can adjust the Channel Level of each speaker in 0.5 dB
increments. The following setting can help you make
detailed adjustments that you may not achieve using the
Manual speaker setup on page 90.

1

Select ‘Fine Channel Level’ from the Manual

MCACC setup menu.
The volume increases to the 0.0 dB reference level.

2

Adjust the level of the left channel.

This will be the reference speaker level, so you may want
to keep the level around 0.0dB so that you’ll have plenty
of room to adjust the other speaker levels.

• After pressing ENTER, test tones will be output.

3

Select each channel in turn and adjust the levels (+/

–10.0 dB) as necessary.
Use

/ to adjust the volume of the speaker you

selected to match the reference speaker. When it sounds
like both tones are the same volume, press

 to confirm

and continue to the next channel.

• For comparison purposes, the reference speaker will

change depending on which speaker you select.

• If you want to go back and adjust a channel, simply

use

/ to select it.

4

When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the Manual MCACC setup menu.
