Manual MCACC setup

You can use the settings in the 

Manual MCACC

 setup menu to make detailed adjustments when you’re more 

familiar with the system. Before making these settings, you should have already completed 

Automatically con-

ducting optimum sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC)

 on 

page  50 

.

You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system or 
add new speakers).

memory to be adjusted in 

MCACC

 under the audio parameter function.

!

  For some of the settings below, you’ll have to connect the setup microphone to the front panel and place it

 on 

page  95 

 if you’re not already at this screen.

Fine Channel 

Level

 on 

page  97

page  

97 

).

!

 

Standing Wave

on 

page  98 

:

!

 

EQ Adjust

 – Manually adjust the frequency balance of your speaker system while listening to test tones (see

on 

page  98 

).

!

 

Precision Distance

 

(SC-LX88 only)

 – Fine-adjusting the positions of the speakers (see 

Precision Distance

 on 

page  99 

).

Fine Channel Level

!

  Default setting: 

0.0dB

 (all channels)

You can achieve better surround sound by properly adjusting the overall balance of your speaker system. You can 
adjust the Channel Level of each speaker in 0.5 dB increments. The following setting can help you make detailed 
adjustments that you may not achieve using the 

Manual speaker setup

 on 

page  103 

.

1  Select ‘Fine Channel Level’ from the Manual MCACC setup menu.

The volume increases to the 0.0 dB reference level.

2  Adjust the level of the left channel.

This will be the reference speaker level, so you may want to keep the level around 

0.0dB

 so that you’ll have plenty 

of room to adjust the other speaker levels.

!

  After pressing 

ENTER

, test tones will be output.

3  Select each channel in turn and adjust the levels (+/–12.0 dB) as necessary.

Use 

k

/

l

 to adjust the volume of the speaker you selected to match the reference speaker. When it sounds like 

both tones are the same volume, press 

j

 to confirm and continue to the next channel.

!

  For comparison purposes, the reference speaker will change depending on which speaker you select.

!

  If you want to go back and adjust a channel, simply use

j

 to select it.

4  When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the 

Manual MCACC

 setup menu.

Fine Speaker Distance

!

  Default setting: 

3.00 m

 (all speakers)

For proper sound depth and separation with your system, it is necessary to add a slight bit of delay to some 
speakers so that all sounds will arrive at the listening position at the same time. You can adjust the distance of 
each speaker in 1 cm increments. The following setting can help you make detailed adjustments that you may not 
achieve using the 

Manual speaker setup

 on 

page  103 

.

1  Select ‘Fine SP Distance’ from the Manual MCACC setup menu.
2  Adjust the distance of the left channel from the listening position.
3  Select each channel in turn and adjust the distance as necessary.

Use 

k

/

l

 to adjust the delay of the speaker you selected to match the reference speaker.

Listen to the reference speaker and use it to measure the target channel. From the listening position, face the two 
speakers with your arms outstretched pointing at each speaker. Try to make the two tones sound as if they are 
arriving simultaneously at a position slightly in front of you and between your arm span.

!

  If you can’t seem to achieve this by adjusting the distance setting, you may need to change the angle of your 

speakers very slightly.

!

  The subwoofer’s test tone differs in tone from other channels. Adjust so that the sound of the subwoofer can 

be heard distinctly. Note that when adjusting the subwoofer, depending on the low frequency response of 
your speaker, it may be difficult to hear the change even when the setting is increased or decreased or when 
the position of the speaker is changed. Note that it may be difficult to compare this tone with the other speak-
ers in your setup (depending on the low frequency response of the reference speaker).

When it sounds like the delay settings are matched up, press 

j

 to confirm and continue to the next channel.

!

  For comparison purposes, the reference speaker will change depending on which speaker you select.

!

  If you want to go back and adjust a channel, simply use 

i

j

 to select it.

4  When you’re finished, press RETURN.

You will return to the
