The Audyssey MultEQ Auto Setup process automatically calculates the size, level, distance, bass management crossover frequency, and optimal settings for each speaker and subwoofer. Audyssey MultEQ corrects acoustical distortions within the listening area.
Before starting, connect and position all your speakers.
Once started, MultEQ will play a series of test tones through each speaker.
If an error message appears during the measurements, check “Error Messages”, take the advised action, then start the measurements again (vpage 23).
Front Speaker
The front speaker to be measured can be selected ahead of time here.
[Selectable items]
A: Output test tone from front speakers A.
B: Output test tone from front speakers B.
A + B : Output test tone from front speakers A and B.

Step 1 : Speaker Detection
The speaker connection and polarity are detected at the first measurement position. The following attributes are also determined at this time: “Speaker Size”, “Speaker Distance”, “Channel Level”, “Crossover Frequency”.
Once the measurements are completed, the results are displayed.
NOTE
•Loud test sounds may be played during Audyssey MultEQ Automatic Speaker Setup.This is part of normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test signals will increase in volume.
•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.
•Quiet the listening environment before beginning measurements and refrain from talking. Turn off air conditioning units or other devices that emit noise if at all possible as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
•Operating the MASTER VOLUME knob on the main unit or the MASTER VOLUME buttons on the remote control during measurements will cancel the measurements.
•Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after “Step 1”.
Step 2 : Measurement
After completing a measurement position, move the microphone to the next position.
Measure 6 positions (main listening position and 5 other surrounding positions). Although it is allowable to measure less than 6 positions, it is recommended to measure 6 for best results.
