First Time Setup This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very first time. Automatic Speaker Setup Using Audyssey 2EQ® With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ® automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ, which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level. (See page 72) Notes: • If the AV receiver is muted, it will be unmuted automatically when the automatic speaker setup starts. • Automatic speaker setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected. • It takes about 10 minutes to complete the automatic speaker setup for three positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the speakers. • Do not connect or disconnect any speakers during the automatic speaker setup. Measurement Positions To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audysssey 2EQ takes measurements at up to three positions within the listening area. A First measurement point This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position. B Second measurement point The right side of the listening area. C Third measurement point The left side of the listening area. The distances between points 1 and 2 and points 1 and 3 must be at least 1 meter. From the examples below, choose the listening area that best matches yours and place the microphone accordingly when prompted.
