5 Play a BD/DVD, and adjust the volume.
Make sure that 
BD/DVD is showing in the 
receiver’s display. If it isn’t, press

for more on this.

Automatically setting up for 
surround sound (MCACC)
The Auto Multi-Channel Acoustic Calibration 
(MCACC) setup measures the acoustic 
characteristics of your listening area, taking 
into account ambient noise, speaker size and 
distance, and tests for both channel delay and 
channel level. After you have set up the 
microphone provided with your system, the 
receiver uses the information from a series of 
test tones to optimize the speaker settings and 
equalization for your particular room. 
 Important
• The Auto MCACC Setup will overwrite any 
existing speaker settings you’ve made.
• Before using the Auto MCACC Setup, the 
iPod USB function should not be selected 
as an input source.
 Caution
• The test tones used in the Auto MCACC 
Setup are output at high volume.
1 Switch on the receiver and your TV.
2 Connect the microphone to the MCACC 
SETUP MIC jack on the front panel. 
Make sure there are no obstacles between the 
speakers and the microphone.
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.
3 Press RECEIVER on the remote control, 
then press the SETUP button.
An on-screen display (OSD) appears on your 
TV. Use 
/// and ENTER on the remote 
control to navigate through the screens and 
select menu items. Press 
RETURN to exit the 
current menu.
• Press 
SETUP at any time to exit the System 
Setup menu.

4 Select ‘Auto MCACC’ from the System 
Setup menu then press ENTER.

Try to be as quiet as possible after pressing 
ENTER. The system outputs a series of test 
tones to establish the ambient noise level. 
Note
1 You may need to set your BD/DVD player to output Dolby Digital, DTS and 88.2 kHz/96 kHz PCM (2 channel) audio (see your 
BD/DVD player’s manual for more on this).
2 Depending on your BD/DVD player or source disc, you may only get 2 channel sound. In this case, the listening mode must be 
set to 
STANDARD (see Listening in surround sound on page 34 if you need to do this) if you want multichannel surround sound.
