After a single calibration is performed, each of
the following three correction curves can be
stored separately in the MCACC memory.
SYMMETRY implements symmetric
correction for each pair of left and right
speakers to flatten the frequency-amplitude
characteristics.
ALL CH ADJ is a ‘flat’ setting
where all the speakers are set individually so
no special weighting is given to any one
channel.
FRONT ALIGN 1
sets all speakers in
accordance with the front speaker settings (no
equalization is applied to the front left and right
channels).
• THX Speaker (only available when the
Auto MCACC Menu above is ALL or
Speaker Setting) – Select YES if you are
using THX speakers (set all speakers to
SMALL), otherwise leave it set to NO.
• STAND.WAVE Multi-P (only available when
the
Auto MCACC Menu above is EQ Pro &
S-Wave) – In addition to measurements at
the listening position, you can use two more
reference points for which test tones will be
analyzed for standing waves. This is useful if
you want to get a balanced ‘flat’ calibration
for several seating positions in your
listening area.
2 Place the microphone at the
reference point indicated on-screen and
note the last microphone placement will be
at your main listening position:
3 Connect the microphone to the MCACC
SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.
Make sure there are no obstacles between the
speakers and the microphone.
If you have a tripod, use it to place the
microphone so that it’s about ear level at your
normal listening position. If you do not have a
tripod, use some other object to install the
microphone.

4 When you’re finished setting the options,
select START then press ENTER.
5 Follow the instructions on-screen.
• Make sure the microphone is connected.
• If you’re using a subwoofer, it is
automatically detected every time you
switch on the system. Make sure it is on
and the volume is turned up.
• See Problems when using the Auto MCACC
Setup on page 40 for notes regarding high
background noise levels and other possible
interference.
Note
1 If you selected ALL or Keep SP System as your Auto MCACC menu, you can specify the MCACC preset where you
want to save the SYMMETRY, ALL CH ADJ and FRONT ALIGN settings.
2 Switch the Multi-P setting NO if you only use one listening position.
