Automatically conducting
optimum sound tuning (Full
Auto MCACC)
The Full Auto MCACC Setup measures the
acoustic characteristics of your listening area,
taking into account ambient noise, speaker
connection and speaker size, and tests for both
channel delay and channel level. After you have
set up the microphone provided with your sys-
tem, the receiver uses the information from a
series of test tones to optimize the speaker set-
tings and equalization for your particular room.
By performing the Full Auto MCACC Setup
procedure, the frequency-phase characteristics
of the connected speakers are also calibrated.
Once the Full Auto MCACC Setup procedure is
completed, the Full Band Phase Control func-
tion is automatically turned on.
Important
! Make sure the microphone and speakers are
not moved during the Full Auto MCACC Setup.
! Using the Full Auto MCACC Setup will
overwrite any existing settings for the MCACC
preset you select.
! Before using the Full Auto MCACC Setup, the
headphones should be disconnected.
CAUTION
! The test tones used in the Full Auto MCACC
Setup are output at high volume.

Make sure there are no obstacles between the
speakers and the microphone.
If you have a tripod, use it to place the micro-
phone 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.
Install the microphone on a stable floor.
Placing the microphone on any of the following
surfaces may make accurate measurement
impossible:
! Sofas or other soft surfaces.
! High places such as tabletops and sofa tops.

reverb characteristics data (both before- and
after-calibration) that this receiver had been
storing will be overwritten.
! When measurement is taken of the reverb
characteristics data other than SYMMETRY,
the data are not measured after the

! Speaker System – Shows the current
settings. When this is selected and ENTER is
pressed, the speaker system selection screen
appears. Select the proper speaker system,
then press RETURN to return.
If you are planning on bi-amping your front
speakers, or setting up a separate speaker
system in another room, read through
Speaker system setting on Operating
Instructions in CD-ROM and make sure to
connect your speakers as necessary before
continuing to step 4.
! EQ Type – This determines how the
frequency balance is adjusted.
! MCACC – The six MCACC presets are used
for storing surround sound settings for
different listening positions. Simply choose
an unused preset for now.
! THX Speaker – Select YES when using THX
speakers (all speakers other than the front
speakers are set to SMALL). In other cases,
leave at NO.
4 Set the remote control to the receiver
operation mode, then select START.
5 Follow the instructions on-screen.
Make sure the microphone is connected, and
if you're using a subwoofer, make sure it is
switched on and set to a comfortable volume
level.
6 Wait for the test tones to finish, then
confirm the speaker configuration in the
GUI screen.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while
the receiver outputs test tones to determine
the speakers present in your setup. Try to be as
quiet as possible while it's doing this.
If no operations are performed for 10 seconds
while the speaker configuration check screen
is being displayed, the Full Auto MCACC Setup
will resume automatically. In this case, you
don't need to select 'OK' and press ENTER in
step 7.
