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, and Acoustic
Calibration EQ.
Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this
is happening. It may take 3 to 7 minutes.
• If you selected a STAND.WAVE Multi-
Point setup (in step 2), you will be asked to
place the mic at the 2nd and 3rd reference
points before finally placing it at your main
listening position.
9 The Auto MCACC Setup procedure is
completed and the
Advanced MCACC
menu
reappears automatically.
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 Manual
MCACC setup menu (starting below) or
Manual SP Setup menu (starting on
page 94).

You can also choose to view the settings by
selecting individual parameters from the
MCACC Data Check screen:
• Speaker Setting – The size and number of
speakers you’ve connected (see page 95
for more on this)
• Channel Level – The overall balance of
your speaker system (see page 83 or 96 for
more on this)
• Speaker Distance – The distance of your
speakers from the listening position (see
page 83 or 97 for more on this)

• Standing Wave – Filter settings to control
lower ‘boomy’ frequencies (see page 85 for
more on this)
• Acoustic Cal EQ – Adjustments to the
frequency balance of your speaker system
based on the acoustic characteristics of
your room (see page 85 for more on this)
Press
RETURN
after you have finished checking
each screen. When you’re finished, select
RETURN
to go back to the
HOME MENU
.
Be sure to disconnect the microphone from
this receiver upon completion of the Auto
MCACC Setup.
Note
1 • Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm (5
inches) will end up with different size settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup
on page 94.
• 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.
• If Auto MCACC Setup measurement results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing
environment, we recommend adjusting the settings manually.

cases where (for optimal surround sound) the actual distance may differ from the speaker distance setting.
