Advanced Setup—Continued

Speaker Distance

This setting is set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ® XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup (see page 56). Here you can specify the distance from each speaker to the listening position so that the sound from each speaker arrives at the listener’s ears as the sound designer intended.

Unit

feet: Distances can be set in feet. Range: 0.5 to 30 feet in 0.5-foot steps.

 

(North American models: default)

meters: Distances can be set in meters. Range: 0.15 to 9 meters in 0.15-meter steps. (European and Asian models: default)

Left, Front Wide Left, Front High Left, Center, Front High Right, Front Wide Right, Right, Surr Right, Surr Back Right, Surr Back Left, Surr Left, Subwoofer 1, Subwoofer 2*1

Specify the distance from the each speaker to your listening position.

Note:

You cannot select speakers that you set to “No” or “None” in the “Speaker Configuration” (page 90).

*1 If the “Subwoofer” setting is set to “1ch”, this setting cannot be selected.

Level Calibration

Level Calibration can be set automatically by Audyssey MultEQ® XT Room Correction and Speaker Setup (see page 56).

If you prefer, you can adjust the level of each speaker with the built-in test tone so that the volume of each speaker is the same at the listening position.

Left, Front Wide Left, Front High Left, Center, Front High Right, Front Wide Right, Right, Surr Right, Surr Back Right, Surr Back Left, Surr Left, Subwoofer 1, Subwoofer 2*1

The levels can be adjusted from –12.0 to +12.0 dB in 0.5 dB steps (–15.0 to +12.0 dB for the subwoofer).

Notes:

The speakers cannot be calibrated while the output of the AV receiver is muted.

The test tone is output at the standard level for THX, which is 0 dB (absolute volume setting 82). If you normally listen at volume settings below this, be careful because the test tone will be much louder.

You cannot get the test tone from speakers that you set to “No” or “None” in the “Speaker Configuration”

(page 90).

*1 If the “Subwoofer” setting is set to “1ch”, this setting cannot be selected.

Tip:

If you’re using a handheld sound level meter, adjust the level of each speaker so that it reads 75 dB SPL at the listening position, measured with C-weighting and slow reading.
