Basic Setup

3 Select

Surr Back System

setting,

select an MCACC

preset

, press and then select

START

Select Normal (Surround back), Speaker B, Front Bi-

Amp or ZONE 2 for the Surr Back System setting

according to connections to the surround back speaker

terminals.

4 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.

5 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 Auto MCACC Setup will r esume automatically. In this

case, you don’t need to select ‘OK’ and press ENTER in

step 6.

•With error messages (such as Too much ambient

noise! or Check microphone.) select RETRY after

checking for ambient noise (see Problems when

using the Auto MCACC Setup below) and verifying the

mic connection. If there doesn’t seem to be a

problem, you can simply select GO NEXT and

continue.

The configuration shown on-screen should reflect the

actual speakers you have.

• If you see an ERR message (or the speaker

configuration displayed isn’t correct), there may be a

problem with the speaker connection.

If selecting RETRY doesn’t work, turn off the power

and check the speaker connections. If there doesn’t

seem to be a problem, you can simply use / to

select the speaker and / to change the setting

and continue.

•If Reverse Phase is displayed, the speaker’s wiring

(+ and –) may be inverted. Check the speaker

connections.

– If the connections were wrong, turn off the power,

disconnect the power cord, then reconnect properly.

After this, per form the Full Auto MCACC procedure

again.

– If the connections were right, select GO NEXT and

continue.

6 Make sure ‘

’ is selected, then press

ENTER

A progress report is displayed on-screen while the

receiver outputs more test tones to determine the

optimum receiver settings for Channel Level, Speaker

Distance, Standing Wave and Acoustic Cal EQ.

Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this is

happening. It may take 3 to 10 minutes.

7 The Auto MCACC Setup procedure is completed and

the

Home Menu

menu reappears automatically.

Be sure to disconnect the microphone from this receiver

upon completion of the Auto MCACC Setup.

The settings made in the Auto MCACC Setup should give

you excellent surround sound from your system, but it is

also possible to adjust these settings manually using The

Advanced MCACC menu on page 77 or The system and

the other setup on page 90.

Note

1• If you are planning on bi-amping your front speakers, or setting up a separate speaker system in another room, read through Surround back

speaker setting on page 91 and make sure to connect your speakers as necessary before continuing to step 4.

• If you have THX-certified speakers, select Return, then select Auto MCACC for the THX speaker setting. See Automatic MCACC (Expert) on

page 78 for more on this.

2 The six MCACC presets are used for storing surround sound settings for different listening positions. Simply choose an unused preset for now

(you c

n rename it later in Data Management on page 88).

3Note that correction curves are saved only when set to SYMMETRY. Select Return, then select Auto MCACC to save other correction curves

(such as ALL CH ADJ and FRONT ALIGN). See Automatic MCACC (Expert) on page 78 for more on this.

4 Do not adjust the volume during the test tones. This may result in incorrect speaker settings.

5If the speaker is not pointed to the microphone (listening position) or when using speakers that affect the phase (dipole speakers, reflective

speakers, etc.), Reverse Phase may be displayed even if the speakers are properly connected.

6 You can also choose to view the settings from the MCACC Data Check screen. See Checking MCACC Data on page 86 for more on this.

7• Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm will end up with different size

settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup on page 90.

• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be ac

curat

e (taking

delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.

• If Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing environment, we recommend

adjusting the settings manually.
