2Select the MCACC preset you want to clear. Make sure you don’t clear an MCACC preset you’re currently using (this can’t be undone).

3Select ‘Clear’ to confirm and clear the preset. Clear Complete! shows in the OSD to confirm the MCACC preset has been cleared, then you automatically return to the Data Management setup menu.

These settings are designed to customize your system, but if you’re satisfied with the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 8, it isn’t necessary to make all of these settings.

Caution

• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at high volume.

2 Select the setting you want to adjust.

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 47).

•Speaker Distance – Specify the distance of your speakers from the listening position (page 48).

•X-Curve– Adjust the tonal balance of your speaker system for movie soundtracks (page 48).

•THX Audio Setting – Specify whether you are using a THX speaker setup (page 48).

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 (Auto

MCACC) on page 8 are correct.1 Note that this setting applies to all MCACC presets, and cannot be set independently.

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).

1Select ‘Speaker Setting’ from the Manual SP Setup menu.
