Notes:

If any of your speakers is 4 ohms, change “Speaker Impedance” setting before running Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup (see page 51).

If the AV receiver is muted, it will be unmuted automatically when Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup starts.

Room correction and speaker setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

It takes about 30 minutes to complete the room correction and speaker setup for six positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

Do not disconnect the speaker setup microphone during the room correction and speaker setup, unless you want to cancel the setup.

Do not connect or disconnect any speakers during the room correction and speaker setup.

(HT-RC180)The onscreen setup menus appear only on a TV that is connected to the HDMI OUT. If your TV is connected to the composite video or S-Video MONITOR OUT, or the COM- PONENT VIDEO MONITOR OUT, use the AV receiver’s display when changing settings.

Turn on the AV receiver and the connected TV.

On the TV, select the input to which the AV receiver is connected.

Set the speaker setup micro- phone at the Main Listening Posi- tion 1 (page 54), and connect it to the SETUP MIC jack.

Notes:

Before starting Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup, arrange the room and connect the speakers as you would for enjoying movies. Changes to the room after auto setup requires you run the auto setup again, as room EQ characteristics may have changed.

When starting the room correction and speaker setup, do not stand between the speakers and microphone, and avoid obstacles blocking the path between speakers and microphone. This will produce inaccurate results.

Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inacurate results.
