Professional Surround Sound Tuning Kit Crestron
NOTE: A minimum of three measurements is required. You will not be able to
continue to the next screen in the application until the third measurement is
complete.
The larger the room, the more positions you should measure (the maximum is 32
positions). Make sure you measure only in positions where people will be located
while listening to the system (i.e. measuring in a far off corner where nobody would
ever listen will not be beneficial and may detract from the overall benefit within the
main listening area).
Audyssey MultEQ ® Pro measures the absolute polarity of each individual
loudspeaker. If any of your speakers are wired out of polarity (i.e. + and – reversed),
the application will show you an error window that explains which loudspeaker(s) to
check. You may then check the polarity problem before continuing with the
application. It is recommended that you check for polarity problems by examining
the wire connections at the amplifier, speakers and any splices in the speaker cables.
NOTE: In some situations, such as when the rear speakers are dipolar radiators, the
program may show a polarity error even if the speakers are correctly wired. Correct
wiring should be verified by checking the connections at the amplifier, speakers and
any splices in the speaker cables.
Polarity Error Window
NOTE: After measurements are complete, Crestron recommends saving these (by
pressing the Save Measurements button) before proceeding to the “Detection
Results” screen. The program will show a standard window asking you to select a
location to save the new .amd file.
Click the forward arrow to finish the measurement process and continue to the
“Detection Results” screen.
NOTE: You can always return to the “Measurement” screen and measure more
positions by clicking the back arrow (the application will remember the last
measured position).
