Notes:

•Before starting Audyssey 2EQ™ Automatic Speaker Setup, arrange the room and connect the speakers as you would for enjoying movies. Changes to the room after auto setup requires you run the auto setup again, as room EQ characteristics may have changed.

•When starting the room correction and speaker setup, do not stand between the speakers and microphone, and avoid obstacles blocking the path between speakers and microphone. This will produce inaccurate results.

•Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce innacurate results.

•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.

•Cell phones should be turned off or 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).

3	Press [ENTER].
	The room calibration and speaker setup starts.

Test tones are played through each speaker as Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup runs. This process takes a few minutes. Please refrain from talking during measure- ments and do not stand between speakers and the microphone.

Note:

You can cancel the Room Correction and Speaker Setup at any point in this procedure simply by disconnecting the setup microphone.

4	When the following display appears,
	move the speaker setup microphone to
	measurement point b (page 37), and
	then press [ENTER].

Audyssey 2EQ performs more measurements. This takes a few minutes.
