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.

Note:

A special microphone (ACM1, option) is needed to use the Audyssey MultiEQ function. Contact a Marantz Authorized Dealer or Customer Support regarding purchase of this microphone.

To set up the speaker system (i.e., adjusting speaker distance, etc.) without using the AUTO SETUP feature, see “MANUAL SETUP” on page 35 of the manual.
