第90回 Audyssey MultEQ Editorの自動音場補正とカーブエディター(パラメトリックイコライザー)を音楽鑑賞用に使うための解説動画です！

Summary

The video explains how to use the paid Audyssey MultEQ Editor app to calibrate an AV receiver and tailor its sound for stereo music listening. The presenter demonstrates the process with a Denon AVC-X6800H, noting that the instructions are based on personal experience and may not apply to every model or setup.

Setup and automatic room correction

• Connect the receiver and the phone or tablet running the app to the same Wi-Fi network. As of March 2026, the presenter says the app cost roughly ¥2,400–¥3,000, including tax.
• Start a new measurement and select the receiver. Use a tripod or the supplied microphone stand. For stereo measurements, disable speakers other than the front pair.
• Place the microphone at ear height in the usual listening position, then measure at additional locations. The presenter uses six positions and suggests that more measurements may improve correction accuracy.
• Save the measurement file with a name that identifies the speaker setup, so results for different configurations can be kept separate.

Reviewing and adjusting the results

• Check the detected speaker configuration, listening distances, and channel levels. Reported distances may be inaccurate, so verify them and match the left and right levels if needed.
• For music, the presenter prefers the Roll-Off 2 target-curve option.
• Midrange Compensation is turned off in the example. According to the presenter, it can create a dip of roughly 4 dB around 2 kHz, which may sound bright but somewhat artificial.
• Use the curve editor to adjust the tonal balance to taste. The presenter suggests starting with a relatively flat curve, listening, and making gradual changes. Adjustments cannot be auditioned live, so settings must be sent to the receiver repeatedly.
• The app can limit the frequency range affected by MultEQ. For example, correction can be disabled above about 5.9 kHz; the presenter suggests experimenting to see whether this sounds preferable.
• The video compares the receiver’s Reference and Flat MultEQ options. The presenter finds that Flat may sound more spacious in a smaller room.

Sending and selecting presets

Upload the adjusted measurement data to the receiver and choose a speaker preset. In the example, one preset is used for surround sound and another for stereo. Presets can be switched using the receiver’s controls or remote.

The presenter also demonstrates accessing speaker-preset and audio/MultEQ settings through the receiver’s menus or a connected TV or monitor.

Takeaway

The presenter’s approach is to use automatic correction to address room-related response issues, then refine the sound with the curve editor. They describe this as a useful option for people who listen to music through an AV receiver, while acknowledging that the process involves trial and error.
