Make sure ‘Normal (SB)’ is selected then

press ENTER.

Try to be as quiet as possible after pressing

ENTER

. The system outputs a series of test

tones to establish the ambient noise level.

6

Follow the instructions on-screen.

• Make sure the microphone is connected.

• If you’re using a subwoofer, it is

automatically detected every time you
switch on the system. Make sure it is on
and the volume is turned up.

• See below for notes regarding background

noise and other possible interference.

7

Wait for the test tones to finish.

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.

• For correct speaker settings, do not adjust

the volume during the test tones.

8

Confirm the speaker configuration.

The configuration shown on-screen should
reflect the actual speakers you have.

If the speaker configuration displayed isn’t
correct, use

/

to select the speaker and

/

to change the setting (and number for

surround back). When you’re finished, go to
the next step.

If you see an error message (

ERR

) in the right

side column, there may be a problem with the
speaker connection. If selecting

RETRY

doesn’t fix the problem, turn off the power and
check the speaker connections.

9

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
speaker setting, 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 8 minutes.

Select ‘SKIP’ to go back to the System Setup
menu.

The MCACC indicator on the front panel will
light to show the setup is complete.

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 System

Setup menu (starting on page 36).

selecting individual parameters from the

Analyzed Data Check

2 • 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

Speaker Setting

on page 42.

• 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.
