The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called “Audyssey® Setup”.

You do not have to perform Audyssey® Setup when you have already performed “Speaker Calibration” in “Setup Assistant”. To set up the speakers manually, use “Manual Setup” on the menu. (v p. 189)

Audyssey® Setup

To perform measurement, place the Sound calibration microphone in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration (up to eight positions).

When measuring the second and subsequent positions, install the Sound calibration microphone within 2 ft (60 cm) of the first measurement position (main listening position).

If you perform the Audyssey® Setup, the Audyssey MultEQ® XT / Audyssey Dynamic EQ® / Audyssey Dynamic Volume® functions are enabled. (v p. 158 159)
