Using Audyssey 2EQ
Notes:
When the automatic speaker setup is complete, the
Equalizer Settings (page 60) will be set to “Audyssey.”
•You can cancel the automatic speaker setup at any
point in this procedure simply by disconnecting the
setup microphone.
1
Turn on the AV receiver.
2
Put the speaker setup microphone at
measurement point
1
(page 35), and
connect it to the SETUP MIC jack.
Notes:
Make sure the microphone is horizontal.
If there’s an obstacle between the micro-
phone and any speaker, the automatic setup
will not work correctly. Set up the room as
you would when enjoying a DVD.
Positioning the microphone close to where
your ears would normally be will provide
better results. You can adjust the height of the
microphone by using a tripod or level table.
3
Press [ENTER].
The automatic speaker setup starts.
A test tone is output by each speaker in turn, as
the Audyssey 2EQ function determines which
speakers are connected. This takes a few min-
utes.
Note:
If any extraneous noise is picked up by the
microphone, the automatic setup may not
work correctly, so don’t make any noise.
