Microphone Positioning
The calibration microphone that comes with Concert AVR-1 is a designed
to be placed in the center of your theater in the main listening position
preferably at the same height as your head. Connect the microphone jack
to the “Aux” input on the rear of your Concert AVR-1.
Make sure you minimize any background sounds in the theater by turning
off any fans or noisy air conditioning systems, and close all doors and win-
dows as outside sounds will negatively affect your measurement. Addition-
ally if the microphone is positioned too close to the speakers this will result
in a signal Clipping error.
Run Auto Setup -
In this menu, press the “Select” button on the
front panel and the Concert AVR-1 will begin generating test tones
out of each channel, a process that takes about two minutes. During
this process the AVR-1 identifies which speakers are being utilized in
the system and what the recommend system adjustments are, based
on the measurements.
Accept Setup -
Once the Auto Setup has completed it’s testing, you
can select to accept the settings or reject them. Options are “No” or
“Yes”.
Auto Setup Progress -
Displays a status summary of the Auto Setup
function and identifies any measurement errors during the testing
process. Options are “Calculating EQ” or “Completed Error”.
After running the test, this screen will display any system errors for
each speaker
Not Present -
Speaker was not detected – check connections if
necessary.
Clipped -
If you have highly efficient speakers or the microphone
is measuring over reflective sounds, this could result in a distorted
or “Clipped” measurments. Try repositioning the microphone
and running the test again.
Mic Too Close -
This is generally a result of the microphone be-
ing too close to the speakers. Try repositioning the microphone
and running the Auto Setup test again.
Crossover Frequency -
Based on the speaker measurements your Concert
AVR-1 processes, it will recommend a crossover frequency between your
subwoofers and your main speakers.
