First Time Setup

Using Audyssey 2EQ™ Notes:
• Before starting Audyssey 2EQ
™
Automatic Speaker
Setup, arrange the room and connect the speakers as
you would for enjoying movies. Changes to the room
after auto setup requires you run the auto setup again,
as room EQ characteristics may have changed.
• When starting the room correction and speaker setup,
do not stand between the speakers and microphone,
and avoid obstacles blocking the path between
speakers and microphone. This will produce
inaccurate results.
• Position the microphone at ear height of a seated
listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the
ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in
your hand during measurements as this will produce
innacurate results.
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise
can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows,
silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air
conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances,
light dimmers, or other devices.
• Cell phones should be turned off or placed away from
all audio electronics during the measurement process
as Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) may cause
measurement disruptions (even if the cell phone is not
in use).
1 Turn on the AV receiver.
2 Set the speaker setup
microphone at the Main Listening
Position

(TX-SR577)
The speaker setting menu appears.
If you change these settings, refer to
steps 5–6 on “Speaker Settings”
(page 40) or step 5 on “Setting the
Powered Zone 2” (page 81).
Notes:
• If any of your speakers is 4 ohms, change the
Speaker Impedance setting before running the
Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and speaker
setup (see page 40).
• If the AV receiver is muted, it will be unmuted
automatically when the Audyssey 2EQ Room
Correction and Speaker Setup starts.
• Room correction and speaker setup cannot be
performed while a pair of headphones is connected.
• It takes about 10 minutes to complete the room
correction and speaker setup for three positions.
Total measurement time varies depending on the
number of speakers.
• Do not connect or disconnect any speakers during
room correction and speaker setup.
