Basic Setup

Automatically setting up for surround sound
(MCACC)
Place the supplied setup microphone in the listening position,
measure the test tones emitted by the speakers, then the unit
automatically sets the optimum volume level for each
speaker, the crossover frequencies, and the distance from
the listening position. This also enables correction of
distortion caused by the acoustic environment of the room.
CAUTION
The test tones used in the Full Auto MCACC setup are
•
output at high volume.
Important
• The OSD will not appear if you have connected using the
composite output to your TV. Use HDMI connection for
Full Auto MCACC setup.
• The Full Auto MCACC setup will overwrite any existing
speaker settings you've made.
• Before using the Full Auto MCACC setup, the USB input
should not be selected as an input source.
