Automatically calibrating
your listening area (MCACC)
The Multichannel Acoustic Calibration
(MCACC) system measures the acoustic
characteristics of your listening area, taking
into account ambient noise, speaker size and
distance, and tests for both channel delay and
channel level. After you have set up the
microphone provided with your system, the
receiver uses the information from a series of
test tones to optimize the speaker settings
and equalization for your particular room.
• These test tones can be loud, so take care
that there is no one in the room who will
be startled by the noise.
• Make sure the mic and speakers are not
moved during the MCACC setup.
1 Connect the microphone to the
MCACC SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.
2 Place the microphone at your normal
listening position.
Place the mic about ear level at your normal
listening position using the supplied micro-
phone stand on a table or chair.
Make sure there are no obstacles between the
speakers and the microphone.
3 If the receiver is off, press
STANDBY/ON to turn the power on.
4 If you have a subwoofer, turn it on.
5 Press RECEIVER.
6 Press MCACC SETUP.
Try to be as quiet as possible after pressing
MCACC SETUP
. The system outputs a series
of test tones to establish the ambient noise
level.
If the noise level is too high,
NOISY!
blinks in
the display for five seconds. To exit and check
the noise levels again, press
MCACC SETUP
(see the notes regarding ambient noise levels
below) or press
ENTER
when you’re prompted
to
GO NEXT?
The system now checks the microphone and
your speaker setup.
If you see an
ERR
message in the display,
there may be a problem with your mic or the
speaker connections.
