Before you perform Auto Calibration

Before you perform Auto Calibration, check the following items:

Set up and connect the speakers.

Do not connect any microphones other than the supplied optimizer microphone to the AUTO CAL MIC jack.

If using a bi-amplifier connection or speakers with a front B connection, set the assignment for the SPEAKERS

SURROUND BACK/BI-AMP/FRONT HIGH/FRONT B terminals properly. For details, see “Selecting the speaker

pattern and setting the assignment for the speaker terminals (Speaker Connection/SB Speaker Assign ).”

Set the speaker output to a setting other than [SPK OFF]. For details, see “Selecting the front speakers.”

Disconnect the headphones.

Remove any obstructions between the optimizer microphone and the speakers.

For accurate measurement, make sure the environment is quiet and free from noise.

Note

The speakers emit very loud sound during the calibration and the volume cannot be adjusted. Be considerate of your

neighbors and any children who are present.

If the muting function has been activated before you perform Auto Calibration, the muting function will shut off

automatically.

It may not be possible to take the correct measurements or to perform Auto Calibration at all if special speakers such

as dipole speakers are used.
