Configure the settings as preferred.
• Dynamic EQ corrects the frequency response in
consideration of the audio characteristics of the
room and human hearing ability so that sound can
be heard even at low volume.
This is recommended when using the unit with the
volume turned down, e.g. when enjoying a movie or
TV program in the middle of the night.
• Dynamic Volume adjusts the Output volume to
the optimal level while constantly monitoring the
level of the audio Input to the unit. Optimal volume
control is performed automatically without any loss
in the dynamism and clarity of the sound when,
for example, the volume suddenly increases for
commercials shown during television programs.
12. When the analysis and storage ends, unplug the
Sound Calibration Microphone from the SETUP
MIC Jack on the Rear Panel and press Next.
13. Select "Details" and press Enter to verify the
measurement results.
• Subwoofers may measure a greater reported
distance than the actual distance due to added
electrical delay common in subwoofers.
Note: Do not change the speaker connections or
subwoofer volume after Audyssey
®
Setup. If these
are changed, run Audyssey
®
Setup again in order to
configure the optimum equalizer settings.
