About setup microphone placement
• Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone
successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening
area, as shown in
G
Example
q
H
. For best results, we recommend
you measure in six positions, as shown in the illustration (up to six
positions).
• Even if the listening environment is small as shown in
G
Example
w
H
,
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® uses
the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance,
level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.
The “Simple version” describes the installation, connection and setup methods for 5.1-channel speakers.
See page 32 for the installation, connection and setup methods for speakers other than 5.1-channel speakers.
