About the main listening position (*M)

 

 

 

 

• Do not hold the setup microphone in your hand

 

 

 

 

The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit or where one would

• Avoid placing the setup microphone close to a

 

 

 

 

normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before starting Audyssey Auto Setup, place the setup

to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
