Manual MCACC speaker 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 8.
You only need to make these settings once
(unless you change the placement of your
current speaker system or add new speakers).
Important
• 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
Automatically setting up for surround
sound (MCACC) on page 8 if you’re unsure
how to do this. Also see Other problems
when using the Auto MCACC Setup on
page 10 for notes regarding background
noise and other possible interference.
• If you’re using a subwoofer, switch it on
and turn up the volume as necessary.
1 Select ‘Manual MCACC’ from the
System Setup menu.
See Making receiver settings from the System
Setup menu above if you’re not already at this
screen.
2 Select the setting you want to adjust.
If you’re doing this for the first time, you might
want to make these settings in order.
• Fine Ch Level – Make fine adjustments to
the overall balance of your speaker system
(see Fine Channel Level below).
• Fine SP Distance – Make precise delay
settings for your speaker system (see Fine
Speaker Distance on page 38).
The last five settings are specifically for
customizing the parameters explained in
Acoustic Calibration EQ below:
• EQ AUTO Setting – Measure the acoustic
characteristics of your room and
automatically adjust the frequency balance
of your speaker system (see Setting the
Acoustic Calibration EQ automatically
below).
• EQ Data Copy – Copy Acoustic Calibration
EQ settings for manual adjustment (see
