About setup microphone placement
• Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone successively
at multiple positions throughout the entire listening area, as shown in
GExample qH. For best results, we recommend you 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 environment results in
more effective correction.

About the main listening position (*M)
The main listening position is the position where listeners would normally sit or
where one would normally sit alone within the listening environment. Before
starting Audyssey Auto Setup, place the setup microphone in the main listening
position. Audyssey MultEQ
®
XT uses the measurements from this position to
calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for
the subwoofer.
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 48.

Prepare the setup
microphone
Mount the setup microphone on a
tripod or stand and place it in the
main listening position.
When placing the setup microphone, adjust
the height of the sound receptor to the level
of the listener’s ear.

NOTE
• Do not hold the setup microphone in your hand
during measurements.
• Avoid placing the setup microphone close to a
seat back or wall as sound refl ections may give
inaccurate results.
The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and
listening room are measured and the optimum settings are
made automatically. This is called “Audyssey Auto Setup”.
To perform measurement, place the setup microphone
in multiple locations all around the listening area. For
best results, we recommend you measure in six or
more positions, as shown in the illustration (up to eight
positions).
When performing Audyssey Auto Setup, MultEQ

functions become active
(vpage74, 75).
To set up the speakers manually, use “Speaker Setup”
(vpage78) on the menu.
NOTE
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room
measurements. Close windows, silence cell phones, televisions, radios, air
conditioners, fl uorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other
devices as measurements may be affected by these sounds.
• Cell phones should be 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).
• Do not unplug the setup microphone from the main unit until Audyssey Auto
Setup is completed.
• Do not stand between the speakers and setup microphone or allow obstacles
in the path while the measurements are being made. This will cause inaccurate
readings.
• Loud test sounds may be played during Audyssey
Auto setup. This is part of normal operation. If there
is background noise in room, these test signals will
increase in volume.
• Operating
VOLUME +, – during the measurements will
cancel the measurements.
• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones
are connected.
