Other problems during Auto MCACC
If the room environment is not optimal for the
Auto MCACC Setup (too much background
noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking
the speakers from the microphone) the final
settings may be incorrect. Check for household
appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.),
that may be affecting the environment and
switch them off if necessary.

If there are any
instructions showing in the front panel display,
please follow them.
Note
1• Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12cm will end up
with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the
Speaker setting
on page 35.
• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be
accurate (taking delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
2 Some older TVs may interfere with operation of the mic. You may want to switch off your TV during the Auto MCACC Setup.
