EMO-Q Advanced Automatic Room Correction

The EMO-Q Advanced Automatic Room Correction System in the MR1L calibrates the MR1L to
produce the best possible sound, in your listening room, with your speakers and the rest of your
system.
Calibration is initiated via the Setup Menu by selecting EMO-Q Calibration. Once you have
initiated the EMO-Q calibration, the MR1L will play a series of test tones, measure the results,
calculate the necessary corrections, display both the results of the measurements and its
corrections on your TV screen in visual form, and save those corrections into the EMO-Q EQ
settings on your MR1L.
After this, the MR1L will set the EMO-Q EQ set to be the default EQ for your MR1L. This will then be
used for all of your inputs except those for which for which you have specified a different EQ set.
NOTE: THE EMO-Q TEST SEQUENCE WILL START AS SOON AS YOU ENTER THE EMO-Q
CALIBRATION OPTION. THEREFORE YOU SHOULD MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE ATTACHED
YOUR CALIBRATED MICROPHONE TO YOUR MR1 *BEFORE* SELECTING THIS MENU ITEM.
WARNING: THE EMO-Q ROOM CORRECTION SYSTEM ON THE MR1L IS DESIGNED TO BE USED
WITH THE PROVIDED CALIBRATED MICROPHONE. ATTEMPTNG TO CONNECT A DIFFERENT
MICROPHONE TO YOUR MR1L MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE MR1L OR YOUR MICROPHONE.
NOTE: THE CALIBRATED MICROPHONE PROVIDED WITH YOUR MR1L WILL DELIVER THE MOST
ACCURATE RESULTS IF THE FRONT OF THE MICROPHONE IS FACING TOWARDS EACH SPEAKER
AS IT IS BEING TESTED. The front of the microphone is the tip of the cone. Therefore, as each
speaker is tested, your should hold the microphone as steadily as you can, and point the tip of
the cone towards the speaker that is playing the test tone. You also need to be careful to ensure
that the microphone has an unobstructed line of sight to each speaker as it is tested. (You may
hold the microphone over your head, or turn your body while holding the microphone in front
of you, but be sure that neither your body, nor any furniture, blocks the path between the
microphone and each speaker as it is being tested.
