NOTE
Since “Amp Assign” of AVR-990 is set to “ZONE2” by default, audio
is not output from the surround back speakers. When using the
surround back speakers with MAIN ZONE, change the “Amp Assign”
setting to “Normal”.
Audyssey Auto Setup detects the presence of each speaker and
automatically calculates the speaker size, channel level, distance and
crossover frequency settings. In addition, acoustical distortions are
corrected within the listening area.
When measuring begins, a test tone is output from each speaker.
Position and connect all speakers before commencing Audyssey
Auto Setup.
