8ENGLISHAbout setup microphone placement• Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphonesuccessively at multiple positions throughout the entire listeningarea, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommendyou measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration(up to eight positions).• Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample wH,measuring at multiple points throughout the listening environmentresults in more effective correction.FL SW C FRSRSBL SBRSL *MFL SW C FRSRSBL SBRSL *M( : Measuring positions)GExample qH GExample wH( : Measuring positions)FL Front speaker (L) SL Surround speaker (L)FR Front speaker (R) SR Surround speaker (R)C Center speaker SBL Surround back speaker (L)SW Subwoofer SBR Surround back speaker (R)About the main listening position (*M)The main listening position is the position where listeners wouldnormally sit or where one would normally sit alone within the listeningenvironment. Before starting Audyssey Auto Setup, place the setupmicrophone in the main listening position. Audyssey MultEQ® XT 32uses the measurements from this position to calculate speakerdistance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for thesubwoofer.About multiple subwoofer calibrationAudyssey multiple subwoofer calibration optimizes the level, delay,and frequency response blending of two subwoofers.z To run Audyssey multiple subwoofer calibration you must select“Measure (2 spkrs)” in “Set up “Channel Select”” (vpage 64).The “Simple version” section provides the speaker installation, connection, and setup methods for the 7.1-channel system with surround back speakers.For the installing, connecting, and setup methods of speakers other than the 7.1-channel system (with surround back speakers), see page 54 .Set up speakers (Audyssey® Auto Setup)3 Set up the remote control unitn Set up the zone mode ZONE SELECT M !"#The M indicator lights.Press ZONE SELECTn Set up the operation mode AMP $% Press AMP1 Prepare the setup microphone $ $ When placing the setup microphone, adjust the height of thesound receptor to the level of the listener’s ear.Sound receptor SetupmicrophoneNOTE• Do not hold the setup microphone in your hand duringmeasurements.• Avoid placing the setup microphone close to a seat back or wall assound refl ections may give inaccurate results.2 Set up the subwoofer $ $$& ' $n When using a subwoofer with a direct modeSet the direct mode to “On” and disable the volume adjustmentand crossover frequency setting.n When using a subwoofer without a direct modeMake the following settings:• Volume : “12 o’clock position”• Crossover frequency : “Maximum/Highest Frequency”• Low pass filter : “Off”• Standby mode : “Off”
