KEEP OBJECTS OFF
Keep objects off the unit. Blocking the vent can result
in accident and damage.
DO NOT TOUCH HOT SPOTS DURING AND
IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE
During and immediately after use, the unit is hot
in areas other than the controls and rear panel
connection jacks. Do not touch hot spots and
especially the top panel. Contact with hot areas can
cause burns.
Opening and closing the front panel door
When you want to use the controls behind
the front panel door, open the door by gently
pressing on the lower part of the panel. Keep the
door closed when not using these controls.

HD Radio TM technology is a new technology that
enables AM and FM radio stations to broadcast
programs digitally. Digital broadcasting provides
listeners with radically improved audio quality and
reception as well as new data services. Furthermore,
supplemental program services allow listeners to
select from up to 8 HD Radio programs multicast on
a single FM HD Radio channel. For more information

TM technology, visit “www.ibiquity.com”.

There are several factors that can degrade the sound
from even the best loudspeakers in a listening room.
One of the most important is the interaction of sound
from the loudspeakers with large surfaces such as
walls, the fl oor, and the ceiling in the room. Even
with careful loudspeaker placement and acoustical
treatments, there are signifi cant problems that are
caused by room acoustics. These include refl ections
from nearby surfaces and standing waves that are
created between large parallel surfaces in the room.
In a home theater the situation is further complicated
because there are several listening locations. The
effects of room acoustics on the sound arriving at
each person’s ears are very different and the result is
a listening experience that is degraded in a different
way for every person in the room. It is not uncommon
to have variations in two adjacent seats that are as
large as 10 dB, particularly in the frequency range
below 250 Hz.
The solution to this problem is to apply room correction
after precisely measuring how each loudspeaker
interacts with the room. Because the room causes
variations in the frequency response of the
loudspeakers that are so large from seat to seat, it
is important to measure each loudspeaker at several
locations in the listening room. This should be done
even if there is only one listener. Measurement at a
single location is not representative of the acoustical
problems in the room and will in most cases, degrade
overall performance. Audyssey MultEQ is the only
technology that can achieve room correction for
multiple listeners in a large listening area. It does so
by combining the data collected at several points in
the room from each loudspeaker and then applying
correction that minimizes the acoustical effects of
the room and is matched to the frequency resolution
of human perception (known as psychoacoustics).
Furthermore, MultEQ correction is applied both
in frequency and time domains and so there are
no artifacts (such as smearing of sound or modal
ringing)that are sometimes associated with traditional
methods of room equalization.
In addition to correcting frequency response problems
over a wide listening area, Audyssey MultEQ provides
a completely automated sound system set-up
process. It identifi es how many loudspeakers are
connected to the amplifi ers and whether they are full-
range, satellites, or subwoofers. If there is a least one
subwoofer connected, Audyssey MultEQ determines
the optimum crossover frequency between each
satellite and the subwoofer(s). It automatically
checks the polarity of each loudspeaker and alerts
the user if there are any that may be wired out-
of-phase relative to the others. It measures the
distance to each loudspeaker from the main listening
position and adjusts the delays so that sound from
each loudspeaker arrives at the same time. Finally,
Audyssey MuitEQ determines the playback level of
each loudspeaker and adjusts the volume trims so
that all levels are equal.
