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
system uses the information from a series of
test tones to optimize the speaker settings and
equalization for your particular room.
CAUTION
The test tones used in the Auto MCACC
Setup are output at high volume.
Important
When using HTP-FS510 and HTP-SB510
models, always use the Auto MCACC setup
function. If this setup is not performed,
various problems may occur, including an
inability to hear screen dialogue, or to hear
sound from the surround channel.
In the event the Auto MCACC setup is not
used, perform the manual
Speaker
Setting
instead.
The OSD will not appear if you have
connected using the HDMI output to your
TV. Use composite connections for system
setup.
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.
1
Connect the microphone to the
MCACC
SETUP MIC
jack on the rear 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.
2
Switch on the system and your TV.
Switch the TV input so that it connects to the
system in analog.
