Manual MCACC setup
You can use the settings in the Manual MCACC setup
menu to make detailed adjustments when you’re more
familiar with the system. Before making these settings,
you should have already completed
Automatically setting
up for surround sound (MCACC & Full Band Phase Control)
on page 11.
You only need to make these settings once (unless you
change the placement of your current speaker system or
add new speakers).
Caution
• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at
high volume.
Important
• You will need to first specify the MCACC preset you
want to adjust by pressing MCACC before pressing
SETUP (step 2 in Making amplifier settings from the
System Setup menu on page 40). When Manual
MCACC is selected while
MCACC is set to OFF, the
selection screen for the MCACC memory appears.
Select a memory to adjust manually.
• 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
SETUP to display the System Setup menu
before you connect the microphone to this amplifier.
If the microphone is connected while the System
Setup menu is not being displayed, the display will
change to the Auto MCACC setup menu. See
Problems when using the Auto MCACC Setup on
page 13 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 System Setup
menu.
See
Making amplifier settings from the System Setup
menu on page 40 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 on
page 45).
• Precision Distance – Fine-adjusting the positions of
the speakers (see
Fine-adjusting the positions of the
speakers (Precision Distance) on page 45).
• Standing Wave – Control overly resonant low
frequencies in your listening room (see
Standing
Wave on page 46).
The last two settings are specifically for customizing the
parameters explained in
Acoustic Calibration EQ Adjust
on page 47:
• EQ Adjust – Manually adjust the frequency balance
of your speaker system while listening to test tones
(see
Acoustic Calibration EQ Adjust on page 47).
• 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 47).
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. The
following setting can help you make detailed
adjustments that you may not achieve using the
Manual
speaker setup on page 52.
1 Select ‘Fine Ch Level’ from the Manual MCACC
setup menu.
The volume increases to the 0.0 dB reference level.
