Automatically setting up for surround sound (MCACC)

The Auto Multi-Channel ACoustic Calibration (MCACC) setup
uses the supplied setup microphone to measure and analyze
the test tone that is outputted by the speakers. This setup
enables automatic high precision measuring and settings;
utilizing it will create an optimum user listening environment.
Important
• Measure in a quiet environment.
• If you have a tripod, use it to place the microphone so
that it's about ear level at your normal listening position.
Otherwise, place the microphone at ear level using a table
or a chair.
• Accurate measurements may not be possible if there are
SOURCE
obstacles between the speakers and the listening position
(microphone).
• When measuring, step away from the listening position,

• If Reverse Phase is displayed, the speaker's wiring (+ and –)
may be inverted. Check the speaker connections.
Even if the connections are correct, Reverse Phase may be
displayed, depending on the speakers and the surrounding
environment. This does not affect measurements, however,
so select Go Next.
• If ERR is displayed, check that speaker is properly connected.
E.g.) Check whether the surround speaker has been
mistakenly connected to the surround back terminal.
• If the power cuts out, the core of the speaker cable may be
in contact with the rear panel, or the (+) and (–) cores may
be touching, causing the protection circuits to activate.
Re-twist the core of the speaker cable, and connect it so
that it does not protrude from the speaker terminal. Also
check the speaker side connections.

Make sure the setup microphone is
disconnected.
