First Time Setup

This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very first time.

Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ® automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening posi- tion. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical prob- lems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ, which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level. (See page 72)

Measurement Positions

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audysssey 2EQ takes mea- surements at up to three positions within the listening area.

AFirst measurement point

This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position.

BSecond measurement point

The right side of the listening area.

CThird measurement point

The left side of the listening area.

The distances between points 1 and 2 and points 1 and 3 must be at least 1 meter.

From the examples below, choose the listening area that best matches yours and place the microphone accord- ingly when prompted.
