Settings

Here, we explain “Audyssey® Auto Setup”, which allows you to

automatically make the optimal settings for your speakers, and “Network Setup”, which allows you to connect this unit to a home network (LAN).

This unit lets you play via your home network (LAN) music files stored on a computer and music content such as that from Internet radio.

Set up speakers (Audyssey® Auto Setup)

The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called “Audyssey® Auto Setup”.

To perform measurement, place the setup microphone in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration (up to eight positions).

•When performing Audyssey® Auto Setup, Audyssey MultEQ® XT/ Audyssey Dynamic EQ®/Audyssey Dynamic Volume® functions become active (vpage 89).

•To set up the speakers manually, use “Speaker Setup” (vpage 94) on the menu.

NOTE

•Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices as measurements may be affected by these sounds.

•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).

•Do not unplug the setup microphone from the main unit until Audyssey® Auto Setup is completed.

•Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate readings.

•Loud test sounds may be played during Audyssey® Auto Setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in room,

these test signals will increase in volume.

• Operating VOLUME +, – during the measurements will cancel the measurements.

• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected.

About setup microphone placement

•Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening area, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration (up to eight positions).

•Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample wH, measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment results in more effective correction.

		GExample qH					GExample wH

	(	: Measuring positions)				(	: Measuring positions)

SW Subwoofer					SBR Surround back speaker (R)

About the main listening position (*M)

The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit or where one would normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before starting Audyssey® Auto Setup, place the setup microphone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ® XT uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

1	Set up the microphone

Mount the setup microphone on a tripod or stand and place it in the main listening position.

When placing the setup microphone, adjust the height of the sound receptor to the level of the listener’s ear.

Setup microphone

If you do not have a tripod or stand, set up the microphone on, for example, a seat without a back.

NOTE

•Do not hold the setup microphone in your hand during measurements.

•Avoid placing the setup microphone close to a seat back or wall as sound reflections may give inaccurate results.

2	Set up the subwoofer

If using a subwoofer capable of the following adjustments, set up the subwoofer as shown below.

nn When using a subwoofer with a direct mode

Set the direct mode to “On” and disable the volume adjustment and crossover frequency setting.

nn When using a subwoofer without a direct mode

Make the following settings:

•Volume : “12 o’clock position”

•Crossover frequency : “Maximum/Highest Frequency”

•Low pass filter : “Off”

•Standby mode : “Off”

NOTE

When you use two subwoofers, please adjust the subwoofer volume controls individually so that each subwoofer level is as close as possible to 75 dB using the test tone (vpage 96) before Audyssey® Auto Setup.
