En 32 Audyssey MultEQ® XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 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 MultEQ XT32 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 MultEQ XT32 allows you to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ®, which maintains the proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level (➔ 57). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers. If "Dynamic EQ" is set to "On" (➔ 57), the "Equalizer" setting will be set to "Audyssey" (➔ 53). On the other hand, if it is set to "Off", the "Dynamic Volume" setting will be set to "Off" (➔ 58). It takes about 30 minutes to complete Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup for 8 positions. Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers. Note • If any of your speakers is 4 ohms, change "Speaker Impedance" setting (➔ 51) before running Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup. Using Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Using Audyssey MultEQ XT32 to create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes measurements at up to 8 positions within the listening area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate results. ■ First measurement position Also referred to as the Main Listening Position this refers to the most central position where one would normally sit within the listening environment. MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer. ■ Second−Eighth measurement positions These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to 8 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.
