ONKYO TX-NR3009 Mode D'Emploi

With the supplied calibrated microphone, 
Audyssey MultEQ

®

XT32 automatically determines the 

number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of 
bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the 
subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary 
listening position.
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 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 
everyone. Audyssey MultEQ XT32 can be used with 
Audyssey Dynamic EQ

 and 

Audyssey Dynamic Volume

Before using this function, connect and position all of 
your speakers.
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 offers two ways of measuring: 
the “Audyssey Quick Start” and “Audyssey MultEQ 
XT32 Full Calibration”.
• “Audyssey Quick Start” uses the measurement from 

one position to perform the speaker setting only.

• “Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Full Calibration” uses the 

measurement from eight positions to correct room 
response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the 
listening environment will become. We recommend using 
a measurement from eight positions to create the best 
listening environment.
The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes 
about 20 minutes.
Total measurement time varies depending on the number 
of speakers.

To create a listening environment in your home theater 
that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey MultEQ XT32 takes 
measurements at up to eight positions within the listening 
area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated 
listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the 
ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your 
hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate 
results. 

■

First measurement position
Also referred to as the Main Listening Position this 
refers to the most central position where one would 
normally sit within the listening environment. 
Audyssey MultEQ XT32 uses the measurements from 
this position to calculate speaker distance, level, 
polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the 
subwoofer.

−

These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places 
where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up 
to eight positions.

• Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio 

Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room 
measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air 
conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, 
or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use) 
or place it away from all audio electronics.

• The microphone picks up test tones played through each speaker 

as Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker 
Setup run.

• Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup 

cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

• Audyssey MultEQ XT32 Room Correction and Speaker Setup 

can only be used with Speakers A. When you insert the speaker 
setup microphone with Speakers B selected, the speaker layout 
is automatically switched to Speakers A.

Turn on the AV receiver and the connected TV.
On the TV, select the input to which the AV receiver 
is connected.

• The on-screen menus appear only on a TV that is connected 

to the HDMI OUT MAIN. If your TV is connected to other 
video outputs, use the AV receiver’s display when 
changing settings.
