Automatically setting up for surround
sound (MCACC & Full Band Phase
Control)
The Auto 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
amplifier uses the information from a series of test tones
to optimize the speaker settings and equalization for your
particular room, and also to calibrate the frequency-
phase characteristics of the speakers connected.
