Step 9. You will now see a Warning message
similar to the one shown in Figure 7 except that it
will contain an option to return to the
NEAR
FIELDEQSELECT
menu (Figure 7f) as
well as the ability to return to the
MASTER
MENU
. If you are ready to proceed with the test,
make certain that the microphone is properly
pointed toward the speaker selected for calibra-
tion, press the
Navigation Button
E
so
that
ONis highlighted and press the Set Button
F
.
Step 10. One short test signal will be sent to the
speaker position being calibrated and after a
slight pause fro the system to calculate the test
results, you will see either a “Near Field
Complete” message or a “Near Field Error” mes-
sage. In most cases, the “Complete” message will
appear, in which case you should proceed to Step
11, if an “Error” message appears, go to Step 12.
Step 11. If the test results were successful, the
message shown in Figure 7g will appear. In order
to properly calibrate the system, you will need to
run the Near Field tests for all three front channel
speakers (left, center and right).After running the
test for the front left speaker, make certain that
the cursor is pointing towards
BACKTO
NEARFIELD
and press the Set Button
F
.When you are taken back to the Near Field
Select menu (Figure 7f) where you should repeat
Steps 8 through 11 until all three front speakers
have been calibrated.When that is done the
EzSet/EQ process is complete and you should
press the
¤
Navigation Button
E
to return
to the Master Menu.

Step 12. If a “Near Field Error” message
appears, as shown in Figure 7h, you should check
to make certain that the microphone is about one
meter from the speaker being tested and that the
top of the microphone unit is pointing towards
the speaker.You may also have to raise or lower
the master volume to achieve accurate readings.
After checking these two items, as needed, make
certain that the cursor is pointing to the
BACK
TONEARFIELD
line and press the Set
Button
F
.This will return you to the NEAR
FIELDEQSELECT
menu (Figure 7f) where
you should repeat Steps 8 through 11, adjusting
the mike placement and volume level as needed
until the
NEARFIELDCOMPLETE menu
(Figure 7g) appears after the test tone stops.

When both the Far Field and Near Field measure-
ments have been successfully completed your sys-
tem is ready for use. Thanks to EzSet/EQ, the set-
tings for speaker “size”, speaker crossover, chan-
nel output and individual channel delay time have
been automatically set and require no further
adjustment. In addition, EzSet/EQ also performs a
complete room equalization that tailors the sys-
tem’s performance for the best possible sound
with your combination of speakers, speaker place-
ment and room acoustics. The next few pages in
this manual detail the procedure for manually
entering system data, but unless you want to
view the setting information and make an adjust-
ment, you are now ready to enjoy the finest in
home theater and music reproduction. Go to
page 35 for complete information on operating
your AVR 635.
Manual Setup
In most cases it is simpler, easier and more accu-
rate to let EzSet/EQ take care of entering the sys-
tem parameters for speaker “size”, speaker
crossover, channel output and individual channel
delay time. However, if you feel that your listening
room or system components are best suited to
manual entry of these settings, the AVR 635 also
allows you to enter or trim any of these tradition-
al system parameters. Even if you do make the
settings manually, we recommend that you run
the EzSet/EQ tests first so that a baseline setting
is established, and then make your adjustments
from there. Note that once EzSet/EQ has been run
you do not need to adjust all system settings, only
those that you want to adjust.
To view or change the current settings, press the
OSD Button
L
on the remote to bring up the
MASTERMENU (Figure 1). Next, press the
¤
Navigation Button
E
as needed until the
cursor is on the
MANUALSETUP line. Press
the Set Button
F
to view the MANUAL
SETUP
menu (Figure 8).
Figure 8
If you have already run the EzSet/EQ calibration
system, the first line of the menu enables you to
hear the difference between the settings estab-
lished by EzSet/EQ. The default setting is
ON,
which plays the incoming source with the
EzSet/EQ settings. To hear the system in a Bypass
mode, with none of the equalization filters in the
circuit path, press the
/
Navigation Button
E
so that OFFis highlighted. Note that once
changed, this setting will remain until you change
it again in this menu.While you may want to use
this menu option to hear the difference that
EzSet/EQ makes, we recommend that you leave
the setting on to take advantage of the benefits
of EzSet/EQ’s advanced room correction technolo-
gy.
The
EZSETADJUST line on the menu
enables you to set the system’s Tilt, or high-fre-
quency boost.To make this adjustment, first make
sure that
EZSETEQline is set to ON, as this
item is not available when EzSet EQ is not in the
signal path.When the cursor is on the
EZSET
ADJUST
line, press the Set Button
F
, and
then press the
/
Navigation Button
E
to
enter the desired setting.When you have com-
pleted your adjustment, press the
Navigation
Button
E
to move the cursor down to the
BACK TOMANUALSETUPline and press
the Set Button
F
.
Note on Manual Setup Menus: Each of the
four major manual setup menus (Speaker Size,
Speaker Crossover, Delay Adjust and Channel
Adjust) includes a line that reads
EZSET
SETTINGS
.When the default setting of
OFFis shown you are able to make any required
adjustments that are available on that menu.
However, you may change the setting to
ONat
any time to recall the settings established when
EzSet/EQ was last run. It is also important to note
that when the EzSet/EQ settings are in use, the
AVR will not allow any changes to be made.To
trim the settings press the
/
Navigation
Button
E
until the cursor is on the EZSET
SETTINGS
line on the menu in use and press
the
/
Navigation Button
E
to change the
setting to
OFF. This will allow you to make
changes to the settings on that menu.
