Before setting the speaker setup
• Auto Speaker Setup lets you avoid troublesome listening-based speaker setup and achieve good surround sound.
You should connect the microphone to the SETUP MIC jack so that this receiver can analyze the information from a series of
test tones emitted from speakers and can adjust the size, distance and sound level of each speaker automatically.
• If you want to personalize your speaker setup and channel level setup by making the settings manually, perform the
“SETTING THE SPEAKER SETUP MANUALLY” procedure on page 19, “Adjusting each channel level with test tone”
procedure on page 31 and “Adjusting the current channel level” procedure on page 32.
Note:
• Because the microphone for Auto Speaker Setup is designed for use with this receiver, to use the auto speaker setup
function, do not use a microphone other than the one supplied with this receiver.
