First Time
Automatic Speaker Setup
(Audyssey MultEQ XT)
With the supplied speaker setup microphone, Audyssey MultEQ XT can measure the number of speakers con- nected, their sizes, crossover frequencies, and distances from the listening position and calculate the optimal speaker settings for you automatically.
Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.
Measurement Positions
To create a listening environment in which several people can enjoy your home theater simultaneously, Audyssey MultEQ XT takes measurements at up to eight positions within the listening area.
■1st measurement position
This is the center position of your listening area, or the listening position if there’s only one listener.
■
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to eight positions.
The following examples show some typical home theater seating arrangements. Choose the one that best matches yours, and position the microphone accordingly when prompted.
