Note: The on-screen menus shown in this guide may differ slightly from your AVR’s actual
menu screens.
Before you use your AVR you need to configure it to work with your particular speaker
system. Your AVR’s EZSet/EQ
™
Plus system uses the supplied EzSet/EQ microphone to
detect the capabilities of each connected speaker and optimize the AVR’s performance
for them automatically. Before beginning, be sure you have correctly connected your
speakers to the AVR.
1. Plug the supplied EzSet/EQ
™
microphone into the AVR’s Headphone connector.
