The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are
measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called
“Audyssey Auto Setup”. To perform measurement, place the setup microphone in
multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we
recommend you measure in six positions, as shown in the illustration (up to
six positions). · When performing Audyssey Auto Setup, MultEQ®/Dynamic
EQ®/Dynamic
Volume® functions become active (vpage 54, 55). · To set up the speakers
manually, use “Speaker Setup” (vpage 57) on the menu.
NOTE
· Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room
measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air
conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other
devices as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
· Cell phones should be placed away from all audio electronics during the
measurement process as Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause
measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is not in use).
· Do not unplug the setup microphone from the main unit until Audyssey Auto
Setup is completed. · 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. · Loud test
sounds may be played during Audyssey Auto setup. This is part of
normal operation. If there is background noise in room, these test signals
will increase in volume. · Operating VOL df during the measurements will
cancel the measurements. · Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are
connected.

About setup microphone placement
· Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone
successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening area, as
shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend you measure in six
positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six
positions). · Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample

About the main listening position (*M)
The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit
or where one would normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before
starting Audyssey Auto Setup, place the setup microphone in the main listening
position. Audyssey MultEQ® uses the measurements from this position to
calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value
for the subwoofer.

Bi-amp connection
A bi-amp connection is to connect separate amplifiers to the tweeter terminals
and woofer terminals of speakers compatible with the bi-amp function. This
prevents the back electromotive force (returned force without output) of the
woofer sent to the tweeter, which affects the sound quality of the tweeter,
and you can enjoy playback with higher-quality sound. In this case, set “Amp
Assign” of “Set up speakers” (vpage 36) to “Bi-Amp”.
Connect
5.1-channel + 2.1-channel connection
If front speakers for 2-channel playback are connected to the SURR. BACK / AMP
