Automatic MCACC (Expert)

If your setup requires more detailed settings

than those provided in Automatically setting up

for surround sound (Auto MCACC) on page 37,

you can customize your setup options below.

You can calibrate your system differently for up

to six different MCACC presets1, which are

useful if you have different listening positions

depending on the type of source (for example,

watching movies from a sofa, or playing a video

game close to the TV).2

Important

• Make sure the microphone/speakers are

not moved during the Auto MCACC Setup.

• Using the Auto MCACC Setup will

overwrite any existing settings for the

MCACC preset you select.3

• The screen saver will automatically appear

after five minutes of inactivity.

CAUTION

• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC

Setup are output at high volume.

1Select ‘

Auto MCACC

’ from the

Advanced

MCACC

menu, then press

ENTER

If the Advanced MCACC screen is not

displayed, refer to Making receiver settings from

the Advanced MCACC menu on page 85.

2 Select the parameters you want to set.

Use / to select the item, then use / to

set.

•Auto MCACC – The default is ALL

(recommended), but you can limit the

system calibration to only one setting (to

save time) if you want.4 The available

options are ALL, Keep SP System,5

Speaker Setting, Channel Level,

Speaker Distance and EQ Pro & S-Wave.

•EQ Type (only available when the Auto

MCACC Menu above is EQ Pro & S-Wave)

– This determines how the frequency

balance is adjusted.

Note

1 These are stored in memory and referred to as MEMORY1 to MEMORY6 until you rename them in Data Management

on page 97.

2 You may also want to have separate calibration settings for the same listening position, depending on how you’re

using your system.

3 Except in cases where you are only adjusting one parameter (i.e. channel level) from the Auto MCACC menu (step 2).

4 • When data measurement is taken (after selecting ALL or Keep SP System), 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 (after selecting ALL or Keep SP System), 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).

• The EQ Pro & S-Wave measurement is also taken when Keep SP System or EQ Pro & S-Wave is selected. See

Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional on page 92 for more on this.

• Either effect of Acoustic Calibration EQ Professional and Standing Wave can be switched on and off in the

respective MCACC preset. For details, see Setting the Audio options on page 67.

5The Keep SP System option allows you to calibrate your system while leaving your current speaker setting (page 101)

unchanged.
