The SETTING DISTANCES menu is displayed when the RV-8 calibrates speaker distances.

• During speaker distance calibration, the RV-8 sends calibration noise signals to the Main Zone

audio output connectors in the order shown on the SETTING DISTANCES menu. The cursor auto-
matically scrolls downward through speaker calibration parameters, highlighting each parameter
while the RV-8 calculates a distance for the corresponding speaker. As it finishes each parameter,
the RV-8 enters the calibrated value or an ERROR message to the right of the parameter label.

• Because of the way low-frequency signals propagate in most listening spaces, automatic speaker dis-

tance calibration often produces unreliable results for subwoofers. For this reason, the RV-8 does not
send calibration noise signals to the Subwoofer connector during speaker distance calibration. Instead,
the RV-8 automatically calibrates the subwoofer distance to the shortest distance of the other speakers.
These distances can be manually adjusted. See “PERFORMING MANUAL SPEAKER DISTANCE CALIBRA-
TION” on page 3-54.

The SETTING LEVELS menu is displayed when the RV-8 calibrates output levels.

• During speaker levels calibration, the RV-8 sends calibration noise signals to the Main Zone

audio output connectors in the order shown on the SETTING LEVELS menu. The cursor auto-
matically scrolls downward through speaker calibration parameters, highlighting each parame-
ter while the RV-8 calculates an output level for the corresponding speaker. As it finishes each
parameter, the RV-8 enters the calibrated value or an ERROR message to the right of the param-
eter label.
