Notes:

The measured speaker distance may differ from the actual distance from speakers. Nevertheless, the measured value is suitable for the speakers.

The included microphone is designed specifically for the SR9600. Other microphones do not guarantee suitable measurement results. Use the included microphone to conduct measurements.

During measurement, press the OK/ENTER or EXIT button to cancel measurement.

In some rooms, an error may occur during auto speaker setup or it may not be possible to set speaker distance correctly because of room acoustics. In such case, set the speaker distance using “MANUAL SETUP”.

If the SPEAKER C selector switch (rear panel) is set to “ON”, the surround back speakers do not output audio.

Error indications during measurement

If trouble occurs during measurement, an error message is displayed on the monitor screen and FL display. Those errors and their remedies are described below.

MIC SETUP ERROR

The microphone (MC-10) is not properly connected.

Check the microphone connection.

TOO MUCH NOISE

Measurement cannot be done correctly because of excessive ambient noise.

Either temporarily turn off power to noisy devices such as air conditioning or move them out of the room.

Retry measurement when the room is quiet.

8. Once finished, disconnect the microphone from the SR9600.

9. When “CHECK RESULT” appears on the FL display, press the OK/ENTER button.

The MRAC 1 Size menu displays measurement results indicating which speakers are connected and their sizes.
