properly.
This setting can be done only from the front panel.

Note

DOCK can be selected for the TV/CD, GAME or VCR/DVR

input selector, but not at the same time.

• Enter the appropriate remote control code before using the

remote controller for the first time (

Note

• Always turn down the volume before connecting your head-

phones.

• While the headphones plug is inserted in the PHONES jack, the

speakers are turned off. (The Powered Zone 2 speakers are not
turned off.)

• When you connect a pair of headphones, the listening mode is

set to Stereo, unless it’s already set to Stereo, Mono or Direct.

• Only the Stereo, Direct and Mono listening modes can be used

with headphones.

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ
automatically determines the number of speakers con-
nected, their size for purposes of bass management, opti-
mum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present),
and distances from the primary listening position.
Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by
room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems
over the listening area in both the frequency and time
domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for every-
one. Enabling Audyssey 2EQ allows you to also use
Audyssey Dynamic EQ

, which maintains the proper

octave-to-octave balance at any volume level (

39).

Before using this function, connect and position all of
your speakers.
If “Dynamic EQ” is set to “On” (

39), the Equalizer

setting will be set to “Audyssey” (

37). On the other

hand, if it is set to “Off”, the “Dynamic Volume” setting
will be set to “Off” (

39).

It takes about 15 minutes to complete Audyssey 2EQ

Room Correction and Speaker Setup

for three positions. Total

measurement time varies depending on the number of
speakers.
