Speakers; Audyssey ® Setup - Denon AVR-X2000 Owner's Manual

Contents

Speakers

The acoustic characteristics of the connected speakers and listening room are measured and the optimum settings are made automatically. This is called
"Audyssey® Setup".
You do not have to perform Audyssey® Setup when you have already performed Speaker Calibration in Setup Assistant.
To set up the speakers manually, use "Manual Setup" (vpage 155) on the menu.
Audyssey ® Setup
To perform measurement, place the Setup and measurement microphone
in multiple locations all around the listening area. For best results, we
recommend you measure in six or more positions, as shown in the
illustration (up to eight positions).

NOTE
• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise can disrupt the room
measurements. Close windows and turn off the power on electronic devices
(TVs, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, etc.). The measurements could be
affected by the sounds emitted by such devices.
• During the measurement process, place cell phones outside the listening room.
Cell phone signals could disrupt the measurements.
• Do not stand between the speakers and Setup and measurement microphone or
allow obstacles in the path while the measurements are being made. Do not hold
the Setup and measurement microphone in your hand during measurements. This
will cause inaccurate readings.
• During the measurement process, audible test tones will come from the speakers
and subwoofer(s), but this is part of normal operation. If there is background noise
in the room, these test signals will increase in volume.
df
• Operating VOLUME on the remote control unit or MASTER VOLUME on the
main unit during the measurements will cancel the measurements.
• Measurement cannot be performed when headphones are connected. Unplug the
headphones before performing Audyssey® Setup.
