Measurements are performed by placing the calibrated microphone (DM-A409) successively at multiple positions throughout the listening area as shown in Example q. For best results, it is strongly recommended to measure 6 positions so that the measurements have the proper spatial weighting. Even if the listening environment is small as shown in Example w, measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environment results in more effective correction. Example q Example w Preparations 1 Connect the included calibrated setup microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit. The auto setup screen appears automatically. Sound receptor 2 Place the microphone at ear height on a tripod or stand with the microphone pointing directly up towards the ceiling.

MultEQ XT uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer. To make manual adjustments to the settings, see pages 27 ~ 29. b Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements. Be sure that the path from microphone to the speakers is not blocked by objects. Avoid placing the microphone close to a seat back or wall as sound reflections may give inaccurate results. When using a subwoofer, make the following settings before starting the auto setup procedure: • Defeat the volume and crossover controls if possible • If this is not possible then set • Volume: "12 o'clock" position • Crossover frequency: "Maximum/Highest Frequency" • Low pass filter: "Off" • Standby mode: "Off"
