Start Auto Setup.<br />
The Audyssey MultEQ XT Auto Setup process automatically calculates<br />
the size, level, distance, bass management crossover frequency, and<br />
optimal settings for each speaker and subwoofer. Audyssey MultEQ<br />
XT corrects acoustical distortions within the listening area.<br />
Before starting, connect and position all your speakers.<br />
Once started, MultEQ XT will play a series of test tones through each<br />
speaker.<br />
If an error message appears during the measurements, check “Error<br />
Messages” (vpage 27), take the advised action, then start the<br />
measurements again.<br />
Configuration<br />
The speaker system to be measured can be selected ahead of time<br />
here.<br />
[Selectable items] 7.1 (B) 7.1 5.1<br />
Setting the correct speaker confi guration can reduce the time required<br />
to measure during the auto setup procedure as the system will not<br />
have to look for speakers that are not connected.<br />
Amp Assign<br />
Advanced setting : changes power amplifi er assignment.<br />
NOTE<br />
The items selectable at “Confi guration” differ according to the “Amp<br />
Assign” settings.<br />
STEP1 : Speaker Detection<br />
The speaker connection and polarity are detected at the fi rst<br />
measurement position. The following attributes are also determined<br />
at this time: “Speaker Size”, “Speaker Distance”, “Channel Level”,<br />
“Crossover Frequency”.<br />
Once the measurements are completed, the results are displayed.<br />
NOTE<br />
• Loud test tone may be played during Audyssey MultEQ XT Automatic<br />
Speaker Setup. This is part of normal operation. If there is background<br />
noise in room, these test tones will increase in volume.<br />
• Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow<br />
obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. This<br />
will cause inaccurate readings.<br />
• Quiet the listening environment before beginning measurements and<br />
refrain from talking. Turn off air conditioning units or other devices<br />
that emit noise if at all possible as measurements may be affected<br />
by these sounds.<br />
• Operating the MASTER VOLUME knob on the main unit or the VOL<br />
+/– buttons on the remote control unit during the measurements will<br />
cancel the measurements.<br />
• Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume after<br />
“STEP1”.<br />
STEP2: Measurement<br />
After completing a measurement position, move the microphone to<br />
the next position.<br />
Measure at least 6 positions (main listening position and at least 5 other<br />
surrounding positions). For best results it is recommend measuring 6<br />
or more positions (with a maximum of 8 positions).<br />
STEP3: Calculation<br />
When “Calculate” is selected at “STEP2”, the measurements taken<br />
are analyzed automatically to determine how the speaker system<br />
interacts with the room.<br />
The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers<br />
connected. The higher the number of speakers, the longer the time<br />
required for analysis.<br />
STEP4: Check<br />
Once the auto setup procedure is complete, a measuring result check<br />
screen appears.<br />
Select any item whose results you want to check to review the<br />
results.<br />
Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for<br />
speakers with built-in fi lters (subwoofers, etc.). This is because fi lters<br />
add electrical delay to the signal that should be compensated.<br />
STEP5: Store<br />
The auto setup measurement results are stored in the AVR-3808.<br />
NOTE<br />
Do not turn the power off while the settings are being stored.
