Automatically calibrating
your listening area (MCACC)
The Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration
(MCACC) system 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.
• These test tones can be loud, so take care
that there is no one in the room who will
be startled by the noise.
• Make sure the mic and speakers are not
moved during the MCACC setup.
1
Connect the microphone to the
MCACC SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.
2
Place the microphone at your normal
listening position.
Place the mic about ear level at your normal
listening position using the supplied micro-
phone stand on a table or chair.
Make sure there are no obstacles between the
speakers and the microphone.

If the receiver is off, press
STANDBY/ON to turn the power on.

If you have a subwoofer, turn it on.
