Setup Microphone - Denon AVR-3311 Owner's Manual

About setup microphone placement
• Measurements are performed by placing the setup microphone
successively at multiple positions throughout the entire listening
area, as shown in GExample qH. For best results, we recommend
you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the illustration
(up to eight positions).
• Even if the listening environment is small as shown in GExample wH,
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 ® XT 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 49 for the installation, connection and setup methods for speakers other than 5.1-channel speakers.

• Avoid placing the setup microphone close to a seat back or wall as
sound reflections may give inaccurate results.

• Crossover frequency : "Maximum/Highest Frequency"
• Low pass filter : "Off"
• Standby mode : "Off"
NOTE
When you use two subwoofers, please adjust the subwoofer volume
controls individually so that each subwoofer level is as close as
possible to 75 dB using the test tone (vpage 81) before Audyssey
Auto Setup.
