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.
Caution
• The test tones used in the MCACC setup are output
at high volume.
• Make sure the microphone and speakers are not
moved during the MCACC setup.
• Using the MCACC setup will overwrite the existing
speaker settings in the receiver (except for the
subwoofer setting – page 35).
• MCACC setup can’t be used if the input signal type is
set to
DVD 5.1ch
. Press
SIGNAL
to change the input
signal type to
DIG
or
ANA
.

position.
Place the microphone so that it’s about ear level at your

this.
