Please note the Reset button below the SAT and SUB measurement boxes. Because SubEQ 3.2 uses a C-weighted
Leq measurement method (essentially a running average of the sound pressure level) it is important to note that if
you change levels of your SAT or SUB(s), it will be necessary to click the Reset button each time in order to clear
the measurement buffer and establish a new measurement. Failure to click the Reset button when you make a
level change to your SAT or SUB will result in very slow changes to the displayed value and inaccurate data.
Ensure that Audyssey Dynamic Volume, Dynamic EQ and DSX are disabled in your AVR or Pre/Pro. With
the SAT measurement box selected, click the Measure button. Adjust the Master Volume on your AVR
or Pre/Pro (clicking the Reset button as needed) until the box turns green and you obtain a steady reading
at/near 0.0 (which equates to 75 dB +/- 3 dB).
Click the Next button on the Level Matching screen. Using the gain control on the subwoofer amplifier,
adjust the level of SUB A (clicking the Reset button as needed) until the box turns green and you obtain
a steady reading at/near 0.0
Click the Next button if you have two subwoofers and repeat the above step for SUB B. It is critical that
dual subwoofers match each other as closely as possible before navigating away from the Level Matching screen.
Once level matching of the Satellite and Subwoofer(s) is complete, click the button to move on to the
next task, “Measuring your Subwoofer(s)”.
