First Time Setup

This section explains the settings that you need to make before using the AV receiver for the very first time.

With the supplied speaker setup microphone, the
Audyssey 2EQ function can measure the number of
speakers connected, their sizes, crossover frequencies,
and the distance from each speaker to the listening posi-
tion and calculate the optimal speaker settings for your
listening environment automatically.
Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.

Measurement Points

To create a listening area in which several people can
enjoy home theater simultaneously, the Audyssey 2EQ
function takes measurements at three points within the
listening area:



First measurement point
This is the center point of the listening area, or the
listening position if it’s just one person.



Second measurement point
The right side of the listening area.



Third measurement point
The left side of the listening area.

The distances between points



and



and points



and



must be at least 1 meter.

From the examples below, choose the listening area that
best matches yours and place the microphone accord-
ingly when prompted.
