Manual MCACC setup

You can use the settings in the Manual MCACC setup
menu to make detailed adjustments when you're more
familiar with the system. Before making these settings,
you should have already completed Automatically setting
up for surround sound (MCACC) on page 7.
You only need to make these settings once (unless you
change the placement of your current speaker system or
add new speakers).
Caution
• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at
high volume.
Important
• You will need to first specify the MCACC preset you
want to adjust by pressing MCACC before pressing
SETUP (step 2 in Making receiver settings from the
System Setup menu on page 33).
• For some of the settings below, you'll have to connect
the setup microphone to the front panel and place it
about ear level at your normal listening position. See

Level below).
• Fine SP Distance – Make precise delay settings for
your speaker system (see Fine Speaker Distance on
page 37).

The last two settings are specifically for customizing the
parameters explained in Acoustic Calibration EQ on

of your speaker system while listening to test tones
(see Acoustic Calibration EQ on page 38).
• EQ Professional – Calibrate your system based on
the direct sound coming from the speakers and make
detailed settings according to your room's reverb
characteristics (see Professional Acoustic Calibration
EQ on page 38).
