If you see an ERR message (or the speaker
configuration displayed isn’t correct), there may be a
problem with the speaker connection.
If selecting RETRY doesn’t work, tur n off the power
and check the speaker connections. If there doesn’t
seem to be a problem, you can simply use / to
select the speaker and / to change the setting
and continue.
•If Reverse Phase is displayed, the speaker’s wiring
(+ and –) may be inverted. Check the speaker
connections.

If the connections were wrong, turn off the power,
disconnect the power cord, then reconnect properly.
After this, perform the Full Auto MCACC procedure
again.
– If the connections were right, select GO NEXT and
continue.
8 Make sure ‘
OK
’ is selected, then press
ENTER
.
A progress report is displayed on-screen while the
receiver outputs more test tones to determine the
optimum receiver settings for channel level, speaker
distance, and Acoustic Calibration EQ.
Again, try to be as quiet as possible while this is
happening. It may take 3 to 7 minutes.
•If you selected a STAND.WAVE Multi-Point setup
(in step 2), you will be asked to place the mic at the
2nd and 3rd reference points before finally placing it
at your main listening position.
9 The Auto MCACC Setup procedure is completed and
the
Advanced MCACC
menu reappears automatically.
The settings made in the Auto MCACC Setup should give
you excellent surround sound from your system, but it is
also possible to adjust these settings manually using the
Manual MCACC setup menu (starting below) or Manual
SP Setup menu (starting on page 90).

You can also choose to view the settings by selecting
individual parameters from the MCACC Data Check
screen:
Speaker Setting – The size and number of speakers
you’ve connected (see page 91 for more on this)
Channel Level – The overall balance of your speaker
system (see page 81 or 92 for more on this)
Speaker Distance – The distance of your speakers
from the listening position (see page 82 or 93 for
more on this)
3
Standing Wave – Filter settings to control lower
‘boomy’ frequencies (see page 82 for more on this)
Acoustic Cal EQ – Adjustments to the frequency
balance of your speaker system based on the
acoustic characteristics of your room (see page 83
for more on this)
Output PC – The data transfer mode with the
connected computer is set. The graphs of the reverb
characteristics before and after calibration and the
various MCACC parameters can be checked (see
Output PC on page 88 for mor e on this).
Press RETURN after you have finished checking each
screen. Wh
en you’re fin
ished, select RETURN to go back
to the HOME MENU.
Be sure to disconnect the microphone from this receiver
upon completion of the Auto MCACC Setup.
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 (Auto MCACC) on page 41.
You only need to make these settings once (unless you
change the placement of your current sp eaker system or
add new speakers).
CAUTION
The test tones used in the Manual MCACC setup are
output at high volume.
Note
1If the speaker is not pointed to the microphone (listening position) or when using speakers that affect the phase (dipole speakers, reflective
speakers, etc.), Reverse Phase may be displayed even if the speakers are properly connected.
2• Depending on the characteristics of your room, sometimes identical speakers with cone sizes of around 12 cm will end up with different size
settings. You can correct the setting manually using the Manual speaker setup on page 90.
• The subwoofer distance setting may be farther than the actual distance from the listening position. This setting should be accurate (taking
delay and room characteristics into account) and generally does not need to be changed.
• If Auto MCACC Setup measurem
e
nt results are incorrect due to the interaction of the speakers and viewing environment, we recommend
adjusting the settings manually.

surround sound) the actual distance may differ from the speaker distance setting.
