If you are doing this for the first time, you may want to adjust these settings in order:

•Speaker Setting – Specify the size and number of speakers you’ve connected (see below).

•Channel Level – Adjust the overall balance of your speaker system (page 44).

•Speaker Distance – Specify the distance of your speakers from the listening position (page 45).

•Bass Peak Level – Prevent bass tones from distorting the sound from your speakers (page 45).

•X-Curve– Adjust the tonal balance of your speaker system for movie soundtracks (page 46).

•THX Audio Setting – Specify whether you are using a THX speaker setup (page 46).

3Make the adjustments necessary for each setting, pressing RETURN to confirm after each screen.

Speaker Setting

Use this setting to specify your speaker configuration (size, number of speakers and crossover frequency). It is a good idea to make sure that the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on

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.).
