Marantz SR6001 manual HOW to Perform Auto Setup, Detection Check

2-1 AUTO SETUP (MultEQ™ SETUP)

The AUTO SETUP (MultEQ™ Setup) feature of the SR6001 measures sound characteristics of the speaker system and room where the receiver is used and automatically optimizes settings.

The Audyssey MultEQ™ technology adopted by the SR6001 provides the best listening environment for multiple listeners.

To do this, the AUTO SETUP feature measures a test tone emitted by each channel in a maximum of 6 listening positions, using the supplied microphone.

The measurement results are analyzed using an original algorithm and environmental settings are made to improve the sound characteristics of the listening area.

To set up the speaker system (i.e., adjusting speaker distance, etc.) without using the AUTO SETUP feature, see “MANUAL SETUP” on page 34 of the manual.

HOW TO PERFORM AUTO SETUP

During measurement, the OSD menu displays the condition, therefore turn power to the monitor on.

1. Connect the supplied microphone to the MIC jack on the SR6001.

2. Set the microphone in the listening position.

For the first measurement, set the microphone in the main listening position.

•Use a stand or tripod to position the microphone at ear height in the listening position.
