Turning On & Basic Operations

With the supplied calibrated microphone,
Audyssey MultEQ
®
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 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. Audyssey MultEQ can be used
with Audyssey Dynamic EQ
®
and
Audyssey Dynamic Volume
®
(➔ page 59).
Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
Audyssey MultEQ offers two ways of measuring: the
“Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ
Full Calibration”.
•“Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement
from one position to perform the speaker setting
only.
•“Audyssey MultEQ Full Calibration” uses the
measurement from six positions to correct room
response in addition to the speaker setting.
The more positions are used in measuring, the better
the listening environment will become. We
recommend using a measurement from six positions
to create the best listening environment.
The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration
takes about 15 minutes.
Total measurement time varies depending on the
number of speakers.
Measurement procedure
To create a listening environment in your home
theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ
takes measurements at up to six 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.
Audyssey MultEQ uses the measurements from this
position to calculate speaker distance, level, and the
optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
■ Second-sixth measurement positions
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the
places where the other listeners will sit). You can
measure up to six positions.
Note
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room
measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air
conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light
dimmers, or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if
it is not in use) or place it away from all audio electronics.
• The microphone picks up test tones played through each
speaker as Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and
Speaker Setup runs.
• Audyssey MultEQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup
cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is
connected.
