Chapter 4:
Basic Setup
Automatically setting up for
surround sound (MCACC)
The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration
(MCACC) setup measures the acoustic
characteristics of your listening area, taking
into account ambient noise, speaker size and
distance, and tests for both channel delay and
channel level. After you have set up the
microphone provided with your system, the
receiver uses the information from a series of
test tones to optimize the speaker settings and
equalization for your particular room.
CAUTION
• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC
Setup are output at high volume.
Important
• The Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any
existing speaker settings you’ve made.
• If you connected either the surround back
speaker or the front height speaker, make
sure that the Pre Out setting is correctly set
before performing the Auto MCACC Setup
(see page 42).
1 Switch on the receiver.
2 Connect the microphone to the MCACC
SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.
Make sure there are no obstacles between the
speakers and the microphone.
If you have a tripod, use it to place the
microphone so that it’s about ear level at your
normal listening position. Otherwise, place the
microphone at ear level using a table or a chair.
3 Press on the remote control,
then press the SETUP button.
• Press SETUP at any time to exit the System
Setup menu. 1
4 Select ‘A.MCACC’ from the System
Setup menu then press ENTER. 2
Try to be as quiet as possible after pressing
ENTER. The system outputs a series of test
tones to establish the ambient noise level.
