2. AccuEQ Room Calibration
Place the supplied speaker setup microphone at the listening position. The unit
automatically measures the test tones output from each speaker, and sets the
optimum volume level for each speaker, the crossover frequencies, and the
distance from the listening position. This also reduces the effect of the standing
wave in accordance with the viewing environment and automatically adjusts the
equalizers for the speakers, and enables correction of sound distortion caused by
the acoustic environment of the room.
It takes between 3 and 12 minutes for calibration to be completed. Each
speaker outputs the test tone at high volume during measurement, so be
careful of your surroundings. Also, keep the room as quiet as possible during
measurement.
If you connect a subwoofer, check the power and volume of the subwoofer.
Set the subwoofer volume to more than half.
If the power of this unit suddenly turns off, the wires in the speaker cables
have touched the rear panel or other wires, and the protection circuit is
working. Twist the wires again securely, and make sure they do not stick out of
the speaker terminals when connecting.
When using THX certied speakers, THX recommends that the crossover
frequency is set to "80Hz(THX)". Also, THX recommends that each speaker
setting is manually adjusted according to the specic characteristics of each
room.
1. Place the supplied speaker setup microphone at the listening position, and
connect it to the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit.

3. Press ENTER to output test tones from each speaker, and the connected
speakers and the noise in the surrounding environment are automatically
measured.
4. The measurement results in step 3 are displayed. If there is no problem in
the detection result of the speaker, select "Next" and press ENTER to output
the test tone again to automatically set the settings such as volume level,
crossover frequency, etc., to their optimum. (The test tone is automatically
output when 10 seconds has elapsed without any operation.)
When an error message is displayed or when the connected speakers
cannot be detected, perform re-measurement by selecting "Retry" and
pressing ENTER.
When it cannot be resolved by performing the re-measurement, conrm
if the speakers are connected correctly. If there is any problem with the
