After completing a measurement position. move the microphone to
the next position.
Measure at least 6 positions (main listening position and at least 5 other
surrounding positions). For best results it is recommend measuring
6
or more positions (with a maximum of 8 positions).
( STEP2: Measurement
The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers
connected. The higher the number of speakers, the longer the time
required for analysis.
Once the auto setup procedure
is complete. a measuring result check
screen appears.
Select any item whose results you want to check
to review the
results.
( STEP4: Check
Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for
speakers
with built-in filters (subwoofers. etc.). This is because filters
add electrical delay to the signal that should be compensated.
The auto setup measurement results are stored
in the AVP-A 1HDCI.

( STEP3: Calculation )
When "Calculate" is selected at "STEP2". the measurements taken
are analyzed automatically to determine how the speaker system
(,"~_T_E_P_'_:_S_p;.e_a_k_e_r_D_et_ect __ io_n ) interacts with the room.
The speaker connection and polarity are detected at the first
measurement position. The following attributes are also determined
at this time: "Speaker Size". "Speaker Distance", "Channel Level".
"Crossover Frequency".
Once the measurements are completed, the results are displayed.

• Loud test tone may be played during Audyssey MultEQ XT
Automatic Speaker Setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is
background noise
in room, these test tones will increase in volume.
•
Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow
obstacles
in the path while the measurements are being made. This
will cause inaccurate readings.
• Quiet the listening environment before beginning measurements and
refrain from talking. Turn off air conditioning units or other devices
that emit noise if at all possible
as measurements may be affected
by these sounds.
• Operating the
MASTER VOWME knob on the main unit or the VOL
+/- buttons on the remote control unit during the measurements will
cancel the measurements.
•
Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after
"STEP1".
If
an error message appears during the measurements. check "Error
Messages"
(~page 28). take the advised action, then start the
measurements again.
Start Auto Setup.
The Audyssey MultEQ XT Auto Setup process automatically calculates
the size. level. distance.
bass management crossover frequency, and
optimal settings for each speaker and subwoofer. Audyssey MultEQ
XT corrects acoustical distortions within the listening area.
Before starting. connect and position all your speakers.
Once started, MultEQ
XT will playa series of test tones through each
speaker.
