Automatic MCACC (Expert)

If your setup requires more detailed settings than those
provided in Automatically setting up for surround sound
(MCACC) on page 7, you can customize your setup
options below. You can calibrate your system differently
for up to six different MCACC presets
if you have different listening positions depending on the
type of source (for example, watching movies from a sofa,
or playing a video game close to the TV).
Important
• Make sure the microphone and speakers are not
moved during the Auto MCACC Setup.
• Using the Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any
existing settings for the MCACC preset you select.
• The screen saver will automatically appear after three
minutes of inactivity.
Caution
• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC Setup are
output at high volume.
