Changing the Playback Components
Assigned to ACTIVITIES
You can change the playback components assigned to the
ACTIVITIES of Easy Macro mode using the following
procedure.
Restoring Default
With the supplied calibrated microphone,
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 automatically determines the
number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of
bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the
subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary lis-
tening position.
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 then removes the distortion
caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical
problems over the listening area in both the frequency and
time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for
everyone. Enabling Audyssey MultEQ XT32 allows you
to also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ
® , which maintains the
proper octave-to-octave balance at any volume level
(
➔ 57).
Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
If “Dynamic EQ” is set to “On” (
➔ 57), the “Equalizer”
setting will be set to “Audyssey” ( ➔ 53). On the other
hand, if it is set to “Off”, the “Dynamic Volume” setting
will be set to “Off” (
➔ 58).
It takes about 30 minutes to complete
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker
Setup for 8 positions. Total measurement time varies
depending on the number of speakers.
Note
• If any of your speakers is 4 ohms, change
“Speaker Impedance” setting (
➔ 51) before running
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker
Setup.
Using Audyssey MultEQ XT32
Using Audyssey MultEQ XT32 to create a listening envi-
ronment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy,
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes measurements at up to
8 positions within the listening area. Position the micro-
phone at ear height of a seated listener with the micro-
phone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do
not hold the microphone in your hand during measure-
ments as this will produce inaccurate results.
■
First measurement position
Also referred to as the Main Listening Position this
refers to the most central position where one would nor-
mally sit within the listening environment.
MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from this posi-
tion to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the
optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
■
Second
−
Eighth measurement positions
These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places
where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up
to 8 positions.
The following examples show some typical home theater
seating arrangements. Choose the one that best matches
yours, and position the microphone accordingly when
prompted.
Press ALL OFF.
The playback component assigned to the last-
pressed ACTIVITIES, the AV receiver, and the TV
