If you have a tripod, use it to place the microphone so that it’s about ear level at your normal listening position. If you do not have a tripod, use some other object to install the microphone.1

The Full Auto MCACC display appears once the microphone is connected.2

•Speaker System4 – Shows the current settings. Settings can be changed using the Speaker System in the Manual SP setup menu.

•EQ Type – This determines how the frequency balance is adjusted.

•MCACC – The six MCACC presets are used for storing surround sound settings for different listening positions. Simply choose an unused preset for now (you can rename it later in Data Management on page 97).

•THX Speaker – Select YES if you are using THX speakers (set all speakers to SMALL), otherwise leave it set to NO.

Note

1Install the microphone on a stable floor. Placing the microphone on any of the following surfaces may make accurate measurement impossible:

•Sofas or other soft surfaces.

•High places such as tabletops and sofa tops.

2If you leave the GUI screen for over five minutes, the screen saver will appear.

3• When data measurement is taken, the reverb characteristics data (both before- and after-calibration) that this receiver had been storing will be overwritten. If you want to save the reverb characteristics data before measuring, connect a USB memory device to this receiver and transfer the data.

•When measurement is taken of data other than SYMMETRY, the data are not measured after the correction. If you will need to measure after correction data, take the measurement using the EQ Professional menu in the Manual MCACC setup (page 92).

4If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read through Speaker system setting on page 100 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before continuing to step 4.
