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 (Audyssey 2EQ) With the supplied speaker setup microphone, the Audyssey 2EQ function can measure the number of speakers connected, their sizes, crossover frequencies, and distances from the listening position, and then calculate the optimal speaker settings for your listening environment. Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers. If any of your speakers are 4 ohms, change the minimum speaker impedance setting below before running the automatic speaker setup (not north American model). Measurement Points To create a listening area in which several people can enjoy home theater simultaneously, the Audyssey 2EQ function takes measurements at three points within the listening area: A First measurement point This is the center point of the listening area, or the listening position if it's just one person. 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. Minimum Speaker Impedance Setup (not North American model) If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more but less than 6, set the minimum speaker impedance to 4 ohms. Note: Before you change this setting, turn down the volume. 1 Press the [RECEIVER] button, followed by the remote controller's [SETUP] button. 2 Use the Up and Down [ ]/[ ] buttons to select "0. Hardware Setup," and then press [ENTER]. 3 Use the Left and Right [ ]/[ ] buttons to select the setting for "Impedance." 4 ohms: Select if the impedance of any connected speaker is 4 ohms or more but less than 6. 6 ohms: Select if the impedances of all connected speakers are between 6 and 16 ohms. 4 Press the [SETUP] button. Setup closes. TV TV TV TV TV TV TV TV TV : Listening area : Listening position 35

First Time Setup
This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very first time.
With the supplied speaker setup microphone, the
Audyssey 2EQ function can measure the number of
speakers connected, their sizes, crossover frequencies,
and distances from the listening position, and then calcu-
late the optimal speaker settings for your listening envi-
ronment.
Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
Minimum Speaker Impedance Setup
(not North American model)
If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4
ohms or more but less than 6, set the minimum speaker
impedance to 4 ohms.
Note:
Before you change this setting, turn down the volume.
Measurement Points
To create a listening area in which several people can
enjoy home theater simultaneously, the Audyssey 2EQ
function takes measurements at three points within the
listening area:
A
First measurement point
This is the center point of the listening area, or the
listening position if it’s just one person.
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 accord-
ingly when prompted.
