Preparations
'*
It is not recommended to hold it
in
your hand.
Be
sure that the
path from microphone to the speakers
is
not blocked by objects.
Avoid placing the microphone close to a seat
back
or wall
as
sound
reflections may give inaccurate results.
When using a subwoofer, make the following settings before starting
the auto setup procedure:
• Defeat the volume
and
crossover controls if possible
• If this
is
not possible then set
• Volume: "12 o'clock" position
· Crossover frequency: "Maximum/Highest Frequency"
• Low pass filter: "Off"
• Standby mode: "Off"

i4 About
the
",ain listening position
(*M)
The main listening position refers to the most central position where
one would normally sit within the listening environment.
MultEQ uses the measurements from this position to calculate
speaker distance, level, polarity,
and
the optimum crossover value
for the subwoofer.
Auto
Setup
• Audyssey MultEQ® automatically measures the acoustical problems
in
the listening environment to create the best audio experience for
your home theater.
• It optimizes a large listening
area
where one or more listeners
are
seated.
Measurements
are
performed by placing the calibrated microphone
(DM-A405) successively at multiple positions throughout the
listening
area
as
shown
in
Example
CD.
For
best results, it
is
strongly
recommended to measure 6 positions
so
that the measurements
have the proper spatial weighting.
Even
if the listening environment
is
small
as
shown
in
Example
0,
measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment
results
in
more effective correction.

Do
not disconnect the setup microphone until the auto setup
