AVR set-up mics..

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me if there is anything special regarding the microphones that come with an avr for setting up levels etc. The demo unit (H/K 3600) that I recently purchased did not come with one, but I can get the use of many "regular" types of mic. Anyone able to comment on the feasability of this?? Thanks...John.

With Audyssey, the AVR is specifically calibrated for the setup microphone, and the combination is specified to give results within +/- 2dB across the band. Substituting a random microphone means your results will be all over the map, depending on the sensitivity of the Audyssey mic vs the other mic at any given frequency. I would expect the same holds true for the HK auto setup and EQ system.
