4. Room EQ                                                                                     
Measurements are performed to calibrate the sound field to suit the room's environment. When "Yes" is selected, you can choose between the "Dirac Live" and "AccuEQ Room Calibration" methods of measurement in the "Dirac Live" screen. Select "No, Later" if measurement is not to be performed. Note that both measurement methods are also available after you have completed Initial Setup.
When measuring with Dirac Live
Download the Onkyo Controller to your mobile device and use the app to operate the measurements. For details on how to measure with Dirac Live, refer to "Measuring with Dirac Live" ( →p140).
When measuring with AccuEQ Room Calibration
Use the automatic sound field calibration technology built into the unit. For details on how to measure with AccuEQ Room Calibration, refer to "Measuring with AccuEQ Room Calibration" ( →p142).
• Both measurement methods use the supplied speaker setup microphone.
• Each speaker outputs the test tone at high volume during measurement, so be careful of your surroundings. Also, keep the room as quiet as possible during measurement.
• If you connect a subwoofer, check the power and volume of the subwoofer.
Set the subwoofer volume to more than half.
• If the power of this unit suddenly turns off, the wires in the speaker cables have touched the rear panel or other wires, and the protection circuit is working. Twist the wires again securely, and make sure they do not stick out of the speaker terminals when connecting.
• When using THX certified speakers, THX recommends that the crossover  frequency is set to "80Hz (THX)". Also, THX recommends that each speaker setting is manually adjusted according to the specific characteristics of each room.
The screen indicating that Initial Setup is complete is displayed when the measurements are finished. Press ENTER while "Finished" is being displayed to exit the Initial Setup.

Measuring with Dirac Live
Use the Onkyo Controller to use Dirac Live to take measurements. Use the most recent version. Note that you cannot make settings using operations on this unit.
Refer to "Onkyo Controller" ( →p143) for information about the app. Also have a tripod ready to set up the speaker setup microphone.
• Calibration takes about 20 minutes to be completed.
Dirac Live® is an advanced room correction technology developed by Dirac Research. As one of the most advanced room correction technology available on the market, Dirac Live helps listeners to correct for one of the weakest components in the audio chain: the listening room. Dirac Live not only corrects
the frequency response, but also the impulse response of the loudspeakers in a room, yielding improved imaging and timbre, better clarity, tighter bass, and less early reflections, as well as reduced resonances and room modes.
1. Select "Start Dirac Live" in the "Dirac Live" screen, then press ENTER.
2. Connect the supplied speaker setup microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit.
                                                   
3. When you start the Onkyo Controller, a screen automatically appears to guide you through measurement, so tap "Start".
• If the guidance screen does not automatically appear, after tapping this unit when it appears on the screen, tap at the bottom of the screen and select "Dirac Live".

4. Tap "Yes", confirm that the displayed speaker configuration is correct, then tap "Yes".
• If the number of speaker channels set in "Speaker Setup" in Initial Setup is different to the number of connected speaker channels, an error is displayed and measurement cannot be performed.
5. Select the method of measurement. There are two methods of measuring to choose from; "Quick Measurement" which measures 3 locations; at the listening position and to the left and right of the listening position; and "Full Measurement" which measures 9 positions including the listening position.
Tap the method you prefer.
"Quick Measurement": Set up the microphone at ear height in the listening position for measurement. Next measure by setting up the microphone between 50 and 100 cm (20" and 40") away to the left and right of the listening position.
"Full Measurement": Set up the microphone at ear height in the listening position for measurement. Next, measure in 8 positions to the front, back, left, right, etc., centered on the listening position. Measure by setting up the microphone in each of these positions, between 50 and 100 cm (20" and 40") away from the listening position.   

6. The guidance about outputting the test tone is displayed. Refer to the illustration to set up the speaker setup microphone in the listening position.

Follow the on-screen instructions to measure.

• Measurement may not be possible if the test tone is too loud or too soft. Tap "Level Adjust" to adjust the volume of the test tone.
7. When measurement is complete, "Calculating results" is displayed on the screen. Tap "Transfer to your product" to transfer the measurement data to the unit.

                                                                       
8. Disconnect the speaker setup microphone.
The speaker adjustments based on the measurement results are saved in the unit. You can modify 3 patterns of the filter curves from the measurement results and register them in 3 slots ( →p146). The filter curves that you register can be selected with "Room EQ" - "Dirac Live" ( →p75) in "Quick Menu".
• When Dirac Live is used for measurement, the measurement results are also reflected in "Speaker" - "Distance" ( →p111) in the Setup menu, and you will no longer be able to change the values. (The setting units are displayed as "msec".)

Measuring with AccuEQ Room Calibration
Place the supplied speaker setup microphone at the listening position. The unit automatically measures the test tones output from each speaker, and sets the optimum volume level for each speaker, the crossover frequencies, and the distance from the listening position. This also reduces the effect of the standing wave in accordance with the viewing environment and automatically adjusts the equalizers for the speakers, and enables correction of sound distortion caused by the acoustic environment of the room.
• It takes between 3 and 12 minutes for calibration to be completed.
1. Select "Exit Dirac Live & use AccuEQ" in the "Dirac Live" screen, then press ENTER.
2. Connect the supplied speaker setup microphone to the SETUP MIC jack on the main unit.
                                               
When placing the speaker setup microphone on a tripod, refer to the illustration.
3. Confirm a test tone is output from the subwoofer and press ENTER.
4. Press ENTER to output test tones from each speaker, and the connected speakers and the noise in the surrounding environment are automatically measured.
5. The measurement results in step 4 are displayed. If there is no problem in the detection result of the speaker, select "Next" and press ENTER to output the test tone again to automatically set the settings such as volume level, crossover frequency, etc., to their optimum. (The test tone is automatically
output when 10 seconds has elapsed without any operation.)
• When an error message is displayed or when the connected speakers cannot be detected, perform re-measurement by selecting "Retry" and pressing ENTER.

• When it cannot be resolved by performing the re-measurement, confirm if the speakers are connected correctly. If there is any problem with the speaker connection, perform the connection after disconnecting the power cord.
• If the volume level of the subwoofer is corrected to the lower limit, reduce the volume of the subwoofer and then measure again.

• Depending on the speakers you are using, some errors may occur in the measurement results. In this case, when measurements are finished, do the settings in "Speaker" - "Distance" in the Setup menu.

( →p111)
6. Once the measurement is completed, it is possible to perform the measurement in 8 additional listening positions. To perform the measurement, select "Next" and press ENTER, then follow the instructions. To not perform the measurement, select "Finish (Calculate)" and press ENTER.
• After each listening position is detected, select "Finish (Calculate)" and press ENTER to complete the detection process.

7. Disconnect the speaker setup microphone.
