“1st Mic Position Check”
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.

2-1 AUTO SETUP (Audyssey MultEQ
®
)
AUTO SETUP (performed by Audyssey MultEQ)
automatically measures the acoustical problems in
the listening environment and optimizes settings to
create the best audio experience for your listening
environment.
Audyssey MultEQ removes frequency response
anomalies caused by the interaction of sound
from loudspeakers within the room. This results in
the playback of sound as it was intended, without
coloration, not just in one seat, but over a large
listening area.
Audyssey MultEQ measures up to 6 listening
positions in the room and detects the presence
of each speaker and automatically calculates the
speaker size, channel level, distance, and optimal
crossover frequency settings.
To set up the speaker system (i.e., adjusting speaker
distance, etc.) without using the AUTO SETUP feature,
see “MANUAL SETUP” on page 33 of the manual.
HOW TO PERFORM AUTO SETUP
During measurement, the GUI menu displays the
condition, therefore turn power to the monitor on.
1.
Connect the supplied microphone to the
SETUP MIC jack on the unit.
2.
Set the microphone in the main listening
position.
Notes:
• Up to 6 positions around the main listening position
can be measured.
For the fi rst measurement, set the microphone in the
main listening position.
• Use a stand or tripod to position the microphone
at ear height for all listening positions measured
with the microphone tip pointing directly up to the
ceiling.
• Remove any obstructions between the speakers and
microphone.
• When using a powered subwoofer, set the level
knob to the middle or 12 o'clock position. Set the
crossover to off, or to its highest value.
If the subwoofer has a standby, or sleep mode, disable
it. Not doing so could affect the test signal which
may result in inaccurate subwoofer measurements.
• During measurements, do not stand between the
microphone and the speakers. Make the room as
quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt
the room measurements. Close windows, silence
cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners,
fl uorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers,
or other devices.
Cell phones should be placed away from all audio
electronics during the measurement process as
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause
measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is
not in use).
It is suggested to operate the AUTO SETUP via the
remote controller rather than by front panel.
• The test tones played through each channel increase
level as needed in order to overcome ambient noise
present in the listening environment and obtain the
best signal to noise ratio.
3.
