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 setting
up for surround sound (MCACC & Full Band Phase Control)
on page 8.
You only need to make these settings once (unless you
change the placement of your current speaker system or
add new speakers).
Caution
• The test tones used in the System Setup are output at
high volume.
Important
• You will need to first specify the MCACC preset you
want to adjust by pressing MCACC before pressing
SETUP (step 2 in Making receiver settings from the
System Setup menu on page 36). When Manual
MCACC is selected while MCACC is set to OFF, the
selection screen for the MCACC memory appears.
Select a memory to adjust manually.
