Automatically conducting optimum
sound tuning (Full Auto MCACC)
The Full Auto MCACC Setup measures the acoustic
characteristics of your listening area, taking into account
ambient noise, speaker connection and speaker size, 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.
SC-LX83 only: By performing the Full Auto MCACC Setup
procedure, the frequency-phase characteristics of the
connected speakers are also calibrated.
Once the Full Auto MCACC Setup procedure is
completed, the Full Band Phase Control function is
automatically turned on.
Important

moved during the Full Auto MCACC Setup.

• Before using the Full Auto MCACC Setup, the
headphones should be disconnected.
