2Select the setting you want to check.

It is useful to do this while a source is playing so you can compare the different settings.

3Select the channels you want, pressing ENTER when you’re finished checking each one.

4When you’re finished, press RETURN. You return to the Manual MCACC setup menu.

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).

These settings are designed to fine-tune your system, but if you’re satisfied with the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (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 (the volume increases to –13dBautomatically).

1Select ‘Manual SP Setup’ then press

ENTER.

2Select 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).

Crossover Network– Specify which frequencies will be sent to the subwoofer (page 43).

Channel Level – Adjust the overall balance of your speaker system (page 44).

Speaker Distance – Specify the distance of your speakers from the listening position (page 45).

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). It is a good idea to make sure that the settings made in Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 8 are correct.
