Basic Setup

Chapter 4:

Basic Setup

Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)

The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration (MCACC) setup measures the acoustic characteristics of your listening area, taking into account ambient noise, speaker size and distance, and tests for both channel delay and channel level. After you have set up the microphone provided with your system, the receiver uses the information from a series of test tones to optimize the speaker settings and equalization for your particular room.

CAUTION

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

Important

•The OSD will not appear if you have connected using the HDMI output to your TV. Use component or composite connections for system setup.

•The Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any existing speaker settings you’ve made.

•Before using the Auto MCACC Setup, the iPod USB function should not be selected as an input source.

•If you connected either the surround back speaker or the front height speaker, make sure that the Pre Out setting is correctly set before performing the Auto MCACC Setup (see page 47). (Here is an explanation using the OSD screen for a surround back speaker connection.)

If you have a tripod, use it to place the microphone so that it’s about ear level at your normal listening position. Otherwise, place the microphone at ear level using a table or a chair.
