When selecting the AUTO SETUP

•Auto Setup lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieve good surround sound.

You should connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack so that this receiver can analyze the information from a series of test tones emitted from speakers and can adjust the configuration, distance, sound level and frequency response of each speaker automatically.

•If you want to personalize your speaker setup and channel level setup by making the settings manually, perform "When selecting the CONFIGURATION" on page 36, "When selecting the DISTANCE" on page 37, "When selecting the CROSSOVER" on page 38, "Adjusting each channel level with test tone" on page 21 and "Adjusting the current channel level" on page 22.

•After the auto setup has been completed, the ROOM EQ is automatically set to ON. (For details, refer to "When selecting the ROOM EQ mode" on page 32.)

Preparations

①. Check that the speakers are securely connected to this receiver.

•If your subwoofer has adjustable volume and crossover frequency, set the volume halfway and set the crossover frequency to the maximum or the low pass filter off.

②. Connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the front panel.(For details, refer to "SETUP MIC JACK" on page 12 .)

■Notes :

•Because the microphone for Auto Setup is designed for use with this receiver, to use the auto setup function, do not use a microphone other than the one supplied with this receiver.

•After you have completed the auto setup procedure, disconnect the microphone.

1. Place the microphone on a flat level surface at the listening position.

•If possible, use a tripod, etc. to attach the microphone at the same height as your ears would be when you are seated in your listening position.

•Ensure there are no obstacles between the speakers and the microphone.

2. Press the CURSOR UP(▲)/DOWN(▼) buttons to select the "AUTO SET", then press the ENTER button.

•Loud test tones are output from each speaker and then if the auto speaker setup procedure has been completed and the results are memorized, the "AUTO SET" will be displayed.

•Check the results on each setup menu(CONFIGURATION menu on page 36, DISTANCE menu on page 37, and CH LEVEL menu for "REF 1" mode on page 39.)

•If the results are not satisfactory, you can retry the auto setup precedure or personalize your speaker setup and channel level setup by making the settings manually.

•To stop the auto setup procedure while outputting the test tones, press the ENTER button.

•If there may be a problem with speaker or microphone connection, "ERROR" will be displayed. In this case, turn off the power, check the connection and then retry the auto setup procedure.

■Notes :

•Because the test tones are loud, ensure there no infants or small children in the room.

•For best results, ensure the room is as quiet as possible during the auto setup procedure. If there is too much ambient noise, the results may not be satisfactory.
