Manual speaker setup

This receiver allows you to make detailed settings to

optimize the surround sound performance. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or add new speakers).

These settings are designed to customize your system, but if you’re satisfied with the settings made in Automatically conducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC) on page 43, it isn’t necessary to make all of these settings.
