When selecting the AUTO SPEAKER SETUP

Auto Speaker Setup lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieve good surround sound. You should connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack so that this receiver can analyze the information from a series of test tones emitted from speakers and can adjust the size, distance and sound level of each speaker automatically.

If you want to personalize your speaker setup and channel level setup by making the settings manually, perform the “When selecting the SPEAKER CONFIGURATION” procedure on page 45, “When selecting the SPEAKER DISTANCE” procedure on page 47, “Adjusting each channel level with test tone” and “Adjusting the current channel levels” procedures on page 33.

Preparations

1.Connect the supplied microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the rear panel.(For details, refer to “CONNECTING MICROPHONE” on page 13.)

Note:

After you have completed the auto speaker setup procedure, be sure to disconnect the microphone.

2.Place the microphone on a flat level surface at your normal listening position.

If possible, use a tripod, etc. to attach the microphone at the same height as your ears would be when you are seated in your listening position.

Ensure there are no obstacles between the speakers and the microphone.

3.For the speakers to be set to “Small”, select the desired crossover frequency performing the “CROSSOVER FREQ.” procedure.(For details, refer to “When selecting the CROSSOVER FREQUENCY” on page 50.)

Press the CURSOR UP()/DOWN() buttons to select the AUTO SPEAKER SETUP, then press

1 the ENTER button.
