Auto setup for appropriate surround effects (IntelliBeam)
First use the “IntelliBeam” function to adjust each channel so that this unit provides the
optimal viewing and listening environment.
• The AUTO SETUP procedure may not be run successfully if this unit is installed in one of the rooms
described in “Unrecommended listening environments” (p. 16). The My Surround function can be used to
enjoy rich surround sound in these types of rooms as well. See “Channel Out” (p. 75) for more information.
• Do not connect the IntelliBeam microphone to an extension cable as doing so may result in an inaccurate
sound optimization.
1
Assemble the supplied cardboard microphone stand, and then
position the IntelliBeam microphone.
2
Position the supplied cardboard microphone stand and IntelliBeam
microphone at your listening position.
• Position the IntelliBeam microphone at the same height as your ears would be when you are seated.
• Position the IntelliBeam microphone so that it is parallel with the floor.
• A camera tripod or stool may also be used instead of the supplied cardboard microphone stand.
Make sure that there are no obstacles between the IntelliBeam microphone and the
walls in your listening room as these objects obstruct the path of sound beams.
However, any objects that are in contact with the walls will be regarded as a protruding
part of the walls.
