Lexicon RV-8 - Manual (Page 93)

RV-8 Setup
3-45
When calibrating for multiple listening
positions in multiple rows, position the
microphones:
3 At the approximate spot where the listener’s head
will be during listening
3 In a clear line-of-sight path with the speakers
3 In a location unobstructed by furniture and other
fixtures, where echoes will not obscure calibration
noise signals
3 At least 2 feet (0.61m) from all speakers and
walls, but within 30 feet (9.14m) of all speakers
The illustration to the right provides an example of
proper microphone placement when calibrating for
multiple listening positions in multiple rows. Each micro-
phone is positioned in a single listening position within a
row, allowing the RV-8 to calibrate optimal speaker
distances and output levels for a larger listening area at
the expense of a single listening position.
