low for accurate measurements to be
made.
• Either turn off any device generating
noise or move it away.
• Try again when the surroundings are
quiter.

NOTE
Do not turn the power off while the settings are being stored.
Step 4 : Check
Once the calculation is completed, a measuring result check (“Parameter Check”) is displayed.
Press
o
to check the result.
Press
ui
to select the item, then press
o
.
Values that are different from the actual distance may be set for speakers with built-in fi lters
(subwoofers, etc). This is because fi lters add electrical delay to the signal that should be
compensated.
Step 5 : Store
The auto setup measurement results are stored in the AVR-688 or cancelled.
After checking, press
ENTER
to select “Store”, then press
ui
to select “Store” or “Cancel”.
Store

Cancel
: Press

Step 3 : Calculation
When “Calculate” is selected at “Step 2”, the measurements taken are analyzed automatically
to determine how the speaker system interacts with the room.
“Calculate” is displayed when you have completed measurements in 6 positions. To complete
Step 2 in 5 or less positions, press
i
to select “Calculate”.
The time required for this analysis depends on the number of speakers connected. The higher
the number of speakers, the longer the time required for analysis.
NOTE
Do not change the speaker connections or subwoofer volume, or speaker locations after making
measurements. These types of changes will invalidate the EQ solution provided. If changes
are necessary, make the changes and use the Audyssey MultEQ Auto Setup once again for an
updated EQ solution.
