Audyssey MultEQ Editor app App Reviews

Good app platform which can be improved. Easy to use and the ability to tailor the sub curve to provide gentle right to left lift in lower frequencies, without simply increasing sub trim, justifies the App. Previous reported bugs have been fixed, like ability to ‘ignore’ phase error messages (in my case I have dipole surrounds which the App analyzer interprets as a phase issue, but I get the opportunity to ignore the error message and keep going). I would like to see an upgrade to allow follow up measurement with Eq in place and to allow minor tweaking thereafter. In order to confirm the actual Eq impact (apart from using your ears), it is still necessary to use an independent measuring tool which requires purchasing an additional calibrated mic.

loads incorrect curves. This happens with 1.6.2 and also the 2 previous versions when used with a Denon X3600H: Flat option on the AVR loads reference curve for all channels: L, C, R, SL, SR, and LFE. Reference option loads the flat curve for all channels above except L for which it loads the reference curve. The actual flat curve has high peaks and low dips compared to Audyssey Off and reference. This shows up in the LFE as well, causing poor bass response. This happens after loading a previously generated MultiEQ calibration. I get the same results with a newly generated calibration from v1.6.2. When I load an old AVR generated calibration, it shows none of the above problems.

Latest update has rendered the app useless. It used to work but it now crashes when ever I try to create a new curve and it gives no other options. Please fix and Please Please add support for the AV7702mkII so I can use it with that too. That would make my listening world perfect.

Communication error (7). Was really hoping this would just work, despite the poor user reviews. Get communication error (7). AVR is on supported list, network is stable, and power cycled AVR several times. The network error will occur randomly. I was able to run a full test once and sense then have tried for 2 days to run another with no success. IT professional with a really good network so there is no way that’s the issue. AVR is hardwired and the iPad is wireless with full signal. No VPN being used, full gigabit network….. please fix your app.

Communication Error. Can’t get through the setup without getting a communication error. It doesn’t save progress so you have to restart every time. Receiver is wired, phone is less than 5’ from router. Network is rock solid for everything else. Go on the audio forums, this is a common issue that they haven’t addressed for 5 years. The app is useless if you can’t get through setup. Don’t waste your money on this garbage.

Can’t find my Denson AVR-7200. Payed for this app, never worked. Can’t find my AVR, and when I tried the "lookup by ip" says ip invalid: i set up most of my devices with static ip so this makes no sense. Denson apps have been plagued by network issues for years: my Denin Avr remote app barely works. I got NONE of these issues with any of my other apps nor my network devices. Stay away from this app unless you got $19 you need to throw away.

Does exactly what it says.. A lot of negative reviews almost scared me away from getting this app. But I did and it has functioned flawlessly, doing exactly what it said it would do. If you want to edit the Audyssey target curve to tweak the flavor of your sound, this app will do it.

Phase Error: Updated. Previously I thought I wasted $20 since I get a FR speaker phase error every time and thought it couldn’t be bypassed in this app. If using a small screen (I have an iPhone XS) it is very difficult to see but you can scroll down to show the third button “Ignore.” Also, on a small screen most of the menus are almost unreadable so you have to open each on to see what it is, hence the 1-star deduction. Hopefully this will be fixed in the future but if you’re using a larger screen you probably won’t have these issues. This app is very powerful if you know what you’re looking at but it takes some homework to understand. Tip: After switching to speaker preset 2, I had to run Audyssey in the receiver first (at least positions 1-3) before the app could see the correct speaker config. I finally am homing in on the sound I’m looking for...close to bliss. Receiver: AVR-X6700H; Front: DefTech BP9040; Device: iPhone XS

Please improve. Please bring back the precision of the older Audyssey Pro in regards to modifying target house curves. Pulling-dragging is not nearly as accurate as being able to manually input multiple numbers (2000Hz -2 dB, 4000Hz -3 dB, 8000Hz -2.8 dB, etc) as could be done with Audyssey Pro. Also, please get rid of the ever present 20Hz high pass filter even on subs that can reach down lower in frequency. So many people pay lots of money for subs that can reach down into the teens or single digits at high SPL as verified by my own measuring equipment, and to then have Audyssey roll them off at 20Hz is a shame.

Excellent flexibility. I’ve been using this app for a while now. Much better than calibration using the receiver. The flexibility to edit different things in copies and upload them is a great way to test different settings. Love it. No problems with my iPhone.

A nice complement to any Denon or Marantz receivers. I see people giving a low star for too much noise and other problems, but first thing. Turn off any eco mode on your Denon or Marantz before calibration. You’ll thank me later. This app is A nice complement to any Denon or Marantz receivers. If you can buy a 2k-3k receiver then this $20 app shouldn’t be an issue.

YOU HAD ONE JOB. Thought it would be worth $20 to be able to disable the midrange compensation. After hard-wiring the AVR it runs through the calibration fine, but fails with a communication error trying to actually save it to the receiver. Tried power cycling it like the error suggested, same issue. Glad this wasn’t the $200 app.

An necessity to control and edit your AVR.. I’m still very new to the use of Audyssey and owning this quality of Home Theater System my 1st system was a Bose lifestyle 16 and while I loved it then it was just plug and play not compatible with todays technology. So my recent upgrade to Denon and Klipsch 7.2.4 and getting the best possible sound has involved some learning. I must say I’m kinda enjoying the process now that I’m starting to understand it more. This app is a necessity if you want to use Audyssey that comes on your AVR. But this I know for sure since this app is owned and developed by Denon and Marantz. Not Audyssey itself they apparently only License it. But own this they certainly should offer it free to everyone who bought they’re products. I know it’s only $20 bucks but if it wasn’t necessary they wouldn’t have felt the need to buy the license and develop the app in fact Audyssey should be paying them back for improving they’re product’s so well that’s just my thought. Until they make it free though it’s a must so cough up the $20 bucks you’ll be glad you did.

Communication errors with possible steps to mitigate them. It was a struggle to get a proper 3 position reading with this app, let alone 6 positions. Here’s what I had to do get it to work: on the receiver (s760h) turn off dchp, set static ip, power off/on, leave mic disconnected. Using an iPad Pro for app, turn airplane mode on and use a usb-c to Ethernet adapter and then hard-wire to network. Start app and start new reading, app would find receiver, however I used manual ip lookup also to ensure it knew where the receiver was. From there proceeded to follow on screen instructions. Even doing that it had one or two communication errors (2 or 11). Eventually able to capture one 3 position reading, and a second 6 position reading. It shouldn’t be this complicated and there’s definitely room for improvement. When it fails why have to start all the way over?

Great app that gives you vast control over EQ perimeters.. Love it. Works perfectly and provides increased customization of your EQ settings for your specific room/speaker configuration. Easy to use and can load different EQ setups in a few mins.

Really makes a difference. Just awesome to be able to balance my setup, really enhance clarity and smooth out problems. $20 well spent, literally hours of fun. If you are wondering why spend the extra when the receiver has the same thing? From my pov you can make the most of your space and customize way beyond the one size fits all flat response. Even helps bridge the gap between home theater and music. Yes, the app is spartan in terms of educating if you are just staring out and the UX really needs some love. There could be an array of target curves to help become familiar with how a change impacts what you hear. Perhaps it could suggest solutions if you have a specific problem. Most of all it treats each speaker pair in isolation instead of treating them as a whole system, but you can still get to a happy place with a bit of trial and error. 5 stars because of what you can achieve, but I hope the developer understands that they haven’t done anyone any favors with the user experience. These is so much potential for a much better in app experience.

Beta/alpha quality. Lots of potential, but needs serious attention. For example: 1. Curve editor is difficult to operate finely with fingers. How about allowing zooming, or numerical or step changes to taps? 2. Painful to make changes to one channel, I.e. the subwoofer. Now have to measure 11 other channels??? Why not let me just remeasure one channel. 3. No semi-live measurement. Would be very helpful for sub optimization, I.e. try multiple locations quickly. Even if it took 30 seconds to display a measurement, would be great, vs #2 4. No in-app way to duplicate curves to have multiple settings for one measurement. 5. Often need to power cycle avr for upload to work. 6. Missing axis labels for room correction. 7. No zooming on graphs.

Still needs work. Constantly drops communication with the Marantz AV7705. I am able to get it to completely run through the setup 25% of the time. Disappointing since it takes 30 minutes to measure 8 different locations for a 7.2.4 system to just have it fail at the last step of saving the data.

Was working fine…... Have been using the app for over a year without a problem. Finally decided to pay someone to calibrate my HT using REW and the multieq app about two weeks ago. We went through all the REW steps and it came time to re run Audyssey using the app. Ram Audyssey just fine then went to send the file to the AVR (Marantz SR8012) and I got a “communication error 1”. Since that time I have attempted to send the file probably over a 100 times and keep getting the same error despite trying multiple devices to send the file, soft resetting and hard resetting the AVR, resetting the wireless network, spoke with Marantz customer service and they had no answers etc….. nothing seems to work. I’m guessing maybe the update to the app that was done 2 weeks ago is making something not work? For now the app is useless for me unfortunately.

Solved my problems. My setup is in a small room and getting the sound tuned to my liking has been a journey but this app helped me run the setup much better than without it and the sound improvements are very noticeable so no complaints.

Decent App, Improvements Needed to Justify Cost. This is a decent app and overall does a good job with my Marantz SR6012, however I don’t think the functionality justifies the $20 cost. • There is no indication of what saved curve is being used. • It’s very difficult to edit curves. • No real-time adjustments. • Often need to restart my receiver after changing curves. • Would like recommendations on mic placement (helpful for 1st time users). • Would like to be able to re-name curves (I assume I can do that by saving to Dropbox and then loading, but should be in-app). • Audyssey should test LFE only and LFE + Main to determine optimal setting for environment (or have an option to test both).

Never Could Complete a Calibration. I have a Denon AVR 3600. I tried seven times to complete just one calibration and was ultimately unsuccessful. Even when I left the microphone in the same position for all of the tests, it would eventually encounter a noise/speaker level error even though there were no differences from prior tests in an empty house with HVAC breaker turned off. If there was a perceived problem with one speaker reading during one position test, the app would show an error message and asked me to redo the test…but the test would never rerun and I got stuck every time without being able to get through all 8 test positions. I am extremely frustrated to have spent two hours trying to get this to work and not have one single room calibration from the effort.

Booster app. I own a Denon X4300h, preceded by the X3300w and never knew the power of these receivers until I purchased and ran this app. OMG, my speakers came alive. Now I can actually feel the presence of my front speakers and the center channel with effects of how movies are supposed to sound, lifelike and pure, my surrounds startling me during action movie scenes. I love how I can edit the parameters of the readings of my rooms that audyssey put out and gradually refine the sound. This app is a must if you want to get the most out of your HT. I should have purchased this longtime ago, but better late than never.

Nice but utterly useless thus far. Working on an iPad Mini 4, latest version of the app, latest version of firmware for my Denon AVR-X3300W. Creating a profile is an absolute breeze, everything works as expected. Lots of options for tweaking the configuration which is nice. It when it comes to actually using it, the app refuses to send the profile to the receiver. It shows up right away when I try but is grayed out and not selectable (though if I opt to create another curve it connects right away). Tried power cycling the receiver, factory reset on the receiver, erasing and re-downloading the app, switching between wired and wireless on the receiver, absolutely nothing works. Would have bothered me less but $20 for what amounts to a couple of pretty graphs with absolutely no utility whatsoever is asking FAR too much.

Audyssey App crashes with IOS and iPadOS 15. Update: raised rating to 3 stars; iPadOS15 crash is fixed. Only recent change is IOS and iPadOS 15. Audyssey app crashes immediately when adding a new curve. Power cycled receiver (AVR-4500) with front panel and power cord; reinstalled app; verified network connection; power cycled iPad. No improvement.

Speaker Timing Off. Many have written Denon and Marantz support about an issue with speaker timing. The AVRs have the speed of sound coded as 300 m/s instead of the true speed. Of 343 m/s. To fix this, you have to manually multiply all speaker distances by 0.875. When I did that, WOW - everything snapped in to place and objects moving around the room sounded so much better. Audyssey themselves understand this issue and have addressed it in their -X desktop software ($199 per AVR license). Two things Sound United can do that so far refuse. One - update this app to automatically adjust the speaker distances so the processor will get the timing right. This would seem to be the quickest and easiest and be done first. Second is update the firmware in the AVRs with the correct speed of sound number. This isn’t rocket science and Sound United’s deafness on this issue is baffling.

Terrible Crossover Bug could blow your speakers. There is a terrible bug in the latest version that sets the crossover of the front speakers to 40hz regardless of what you set it to. It looks like it takes the setting but when you check the app again or the receiver it is set to 40hz. This can blow your speakers! in fact it did blow one of mine and I should sue D&M for the value of the speaker! Don’t trust the app like I did and double check the settings on the receiver menu before listening to anything.

Waste of $20. Well, it worked the first time. Then failed the next 17 times. Keeps telling me that it can’t find the front left speaker meanwhile it makes the chirps and continues to chirp in the center speaker. At least I got one good calibration which I already did when I got the receiver. Hoping this would’ve tweaked some of the system even more. Also, I saved my data to the provided format only to tell me when I open it, that it’s corrupted. Hahhaha! You mean, $20 for this app is corrupt.

Re: Speaker Timing Off review. I hesitated to spend $20 on an app, but this seems to provide a great deal of control. I haven’t a clue, yet, how to use it, so I’ll be looking for online tutorials. I expected to find an EQ or similar controls, as so many had suggested this app due to the lack of manual control while using Audyssey. I’m sure I can do this with the curves, but I’ll have to learn how. On Nov 19 (it doesn’t say what year) “TOJOHNSO” posted a reviews here about the value used by Audyssey to calculate speaker distances. I was skeptical, but I used his math (multiply Audessey values by 0.875) in this app to change the calculated distances… what a difference it made! I run Tidal through WiiM Pro Plus with fixed volume, mono off, at 100% volume into stereo output and the change was very noticeable - much more depth and volume. After hearing this improvement, I grabbed a tape measure and entered actual distances for nominal additional improvement. I’ve still got a lot to learn about adjusting curves, but I recommend starting with this adjustment… which can be done without the app.

Please fix the subwoofer levels. This app works great minus the current subwoofer bug. I consistently get -12db and have troubleshooted everything I could imagine. I used a different sub, I adjusted the gain multiple times, i flipped the phase. Same results. Every. Single. Time. Please fix this bug with the next update.

Worked great for me.. Just got a brand new Denon 1700 AVR and despite running the original MultEQ setup the sound was muffled and lacked good sound. This is a system with Paradigm speakers, so I knew right away it was something in the setup of the AVR. Lots of research brought me to this app-well worth the 20 bucks and it worked flawlessly for me. Not sure why it’s buggy on other peoples phones but it worked right out of the gate for me. The better comment is WOW I had no idea that moving a few curves around and adjusting some settings in this app would make my system sound COMPLETELY different. It’s amazing how the clarity and spatial sound is back in my system. It works, period.

Works well. A must have if you want to fine tune anything with Audyssey. I haven’t run into any issues yet and I’ve run the setup several times. I prefer this to the traditional remote. Highly recommend!

Worth it!. I was able to get a better in room response with the app and using the curve editor than I was using the built in Audyssey setup on the AVR. I verified that with room measurements using REW. This app isn't perfect, but it's pretty good. I wish the curve editor was easier to work, but other than that they addressed my other complaints in updates. Totally worth the $20.

No Errors, No Sound Rear Dolby Atmos Speakers (7.1.4). I’m running the App on an iPad Pro (3rd gen) and it interfaces with my Marantz AV7706 and runs through the calibration with No issues. I edit the file and change front speaker size from large to small and set crossovers. I load the file into the 7706, again without issue, and when I play Dolby Atmos content there is No sound from the back Dolby Atmos speakers. I tried several times with the same result, once using my iPhone 7S. The AVR will play sound through the rear Dolby Atmos speakers using the level test tone. Marantz technical support thought my AVR may be defective but had me do a factory reset and a quick manual setup and the rear Dolby Atmos speakers played beautifully. I now have calibrated the AVR with the preamp’s internal Audyssey software and the rear Dolby Atmos speakers play as they should. I’ve issued a support ticket with Marantz as I don’t know who supports this App. I’ve lost time, money and my patience and may pursue a refund. (HT is 7.1.4)

Should be able to make more changes. Why can’t I set crossovers manually and set target curve to flat in the app? Audyssey detects my main speakers as large and sets them to full band on the AVR, but sets a crossover point different when using the app. It is really annoying. Also allow use of manual entry for curve editor so that it is easier to narrow down the adjustments.

Denon 4300H / Polk Speakers. I like this app, well worth the $20 IMHO. I improved my mid range clarity with a slight improvement of bass. I like that I can go back to the “saved curved file” after I play around with settings. I have a 9.2 system.

A good app, but needs more functionality. This app grants you the ability to see the measurements your mic made on a frequency response diagram, which for tuning is priceless. I love having the ability to create custom curves as well, since my speakers tend to be peaky in the bass. It is also good because I can choose the cutoff point for the EQ — for instance, if I only want to EQ 0-250Hz on a given speaker. Unfortunately it is quite difficult to set tone curves because of how buggy the point creation feature is. This has since been improved with the October 2019 update. I also would wish to see a function to add speakers to an existing set instead of having to measure everything again.

Very Useful. On my Denon, this app is the only way to adjust tone and still have Audyssey active, so if you want to adjust the frequency response curve and still have room correction, you want this app. Adjustments are done in batch, not real time: you adjust the curve, upload it to the receiver, listen, and repeat as necessary, which is not as cumbersome as it sounds. Thanks to this app, my system sounds great. A minor annoyance is that every time I upload a curve the dynamic EQ offset gets reset to its default value, so it loses one star.

Good but wish it was better. It is nice to see the before and after on the room correction. It would be 5 stars for me if it had more “Target Sound Options” such as flat, x-curve (with different HF roll offs), the current curve, and maybe a custom curve option. Also, once the Audyssey settings has been applied, it would be great to be able to tweak it with a 32 band eq, maybe even 16 band would be ok. Doing this in real time would be a great plus!

Worthy Investment. This editing app works as described with my Denon AVR S960H. Being able to see the “Before” room correction graphs allowed me to decide which speakers to keep or remove the midrange compensation by the speakers native dip around the 2khz range. I could also use the curve editor to give a slight bump in the dual subwoofer’s 25-50hz range to add just a little more punch to the deep frequencies. Being my living room isn’t the most optimum for speaker placement, I let the EQ Frequency Range setting edit the room correction at full 20-20,000hz range, rather than cutting it off near the 500hz range like many do. Using this app rather than the one built into the AVR has made a noticeable difference in sound quality, and was worth the reasonable cost. It was almost like removing a blanket off the speakers.

Good but needs a fix since last update. This app is good and adds some features which were desperately needed in Audyessy XT32. In this current update a bug was introduced which has not been fixed which sets your front left and right speaker crossover to 40Hz regardless to you set them to. If you set them to 80Hz and back out of the settings it reverts to 40Hz. The only fix seems to be to change the crossover setting in the AVR after the calibration is completed. Can somebody please fix this bug. For any new user I would not purchase the app until this bug is fixed, maybe that will get Denon/Marantz to fix it.

Fantastic flexible room/speaker compensation. This app takes care of room acoustics for anything from stereo to surround sound. Flexible - a number of presets are available for midrange harshness compensation and level adjustments for individual speakers. Takes the receiver to a whole new level for clarity and imaging.

Need improvement. Trouble getting set up finished as it looses connection part way through process repeatedly. My WiFi is strong so unsure why this is happening. I’m be nicer if it also gave you the ability to make volume adjustments on each speaker throughout system

Beyond disappointing with Cinema 50. I tried to use Audyssey with my Marantz Cinema 50 only to find that it more or less totally eliminated my subwoofer. The friendly folks on the Internet said get this app, which makes little sense for someone just wanting an easy button room correction that the system supposedly comes with. Either way, this app did not easy fix the problem and I had to do a reset of my receiver to get my sub. Come on Marantz and Audyssey.

Engineer. I am very dissapointed that I cannot get past a "phase error" with the speaker setup. My speakers are in phase. According to the Audssey website phase errors are only indications of potential issues. They can be caused by the environment. Again, my speakers are IN PHASE ALREADY. If I run Audssey from the 6012 directly I can choose to ignore this error and complete a setup. With the app my only choices are "re-try" or "cancel". I can't get past the first test. Total and complete waste of $20. Please fix the app to give me the option to "ignore" just like the SW built into my rcvr.

Having this extra control matters. In years past, when amps had bass|midrange|high tone controls, one could dial up tone to suit. Now with Audyssey taking a profile of the room, it’s suppose to equalize better. But as many have noted, it does roll off the highs by default. And the overall results may not suit your tastes. This app allows you to customize those curves. That alone makes this app worth it! I thought I was missing the high end response I knew my speakers were capable of, and I was right. But if you wanted to use Audyssey to profile the room, you were more or less stuck with the results. This app gives you the ability to see the resulting curves and modify to suit. You can also decide to set an upper limit to each curve if you don’t want it messing with the high end. I’m satisfied with the results. Using tone controls on amps of old may have been easier, but this is more precise. Kudos to this app which allows one to adjust the results. In my case, I now have restored my high end frequencies without messing with the nice room EQ profile.

Great idea, but should be free in Beta mode.. UPDATE: went from 2 stars up to 5 stars! The app works every time and loads every graph now. The FIR filters that Audessey uses sound fantastic. A little slow still, but it seems that they are invested in keeping this app around. I can’t imaging buying another receiver that doesn’t support this app! After updating the firmware on the receiver, it took several attempts to get all the way through the setup. It finally did and sounds nice, but editing a custom curve is very clunky; and it doesn't load the graphs for all speakers. Also, it doesn't take a measurement post-eq which means the "after" that it shows you is merely a prediction. The ENTIRE reason I bought this receiver was for the feature of this app, as I am an audio engineer and speaker designer. So, it worked…ish. I can't believe it costs $20 for how unfinished it feels, though. The interface looks nice and will be great once they get it to function. Lots of programming to do still, fellas.

Great app. I was expecting the worst based on the other reviews but even though it wasn't able to find my receiver automatically, I was able to manually add the IP address to find it. Also the resultant crossovers were lower and more accurate than from the setup on the receiver. And the curve editing was good enough for my simple changes. Though there is no option to measure the resultant curve hopefully that will be added later.

Good but not great. Definitely this app has ups and downs, but after playing a while I have been able to get good results on my Denon X4300H. I wish the app could have more control, for example to have the ability to copy and apply some sound curves from one file to another, (like creating your own). Also been able to add more channels without to rerun Audyssey again, this will save time. I wish the app could also have a download center this could help a lot of people that don’t know to much about av receivers, and can let them download some files by model, brand and speaker configurations and apply it to their system for a quick test or a long run use. Come on guys, the possibilities are there and for $20 you can offer a lot more.

Amazing results for my room. I don’t have my room set up in a typical configuration for optimal surround sound . The before and after using this app with my SR6014 is remarkable. I’m really really impressed at how much more vivid and complete the sound is. I was having some odd bass resonance from my center speaker that’s completely resolved and speech in movies is so much more clear than before

Powerful editing. This app truly adds new possibilities to edit your set up as compared to the room correction built in your AVR. For those new to audyssey it is worth looking up some YouTube videos to understand how to get the most of this.

Essential fine tuning. I was sceptical about buying an app worth this much, but after dropping a few grand on Denon equipment I figured, why not? I’m happy I did, made some adjustments which improved my experience by quite a bit, Top Gun Maverick has never sounded so good.

100% Improvement. Essential and worth it (although why not build into the firmware in the first place?)

Unable to use with Denon AVR4700. Does not detect 12th speaker (Top surround through sub 2 output)This issue is clearly a fault with the app as the calibration and setup (with Top surround) works fine every time through the amp menu itself, without the app. This defeats the purpose in the app in the first place. Most other configurations worked fine except for when adding the Top Surround. I have contacted Denon Au, I was advised to try reloading firmware etc, which was done, but no difference.

Require support for my Denon avr-x3200w. I just purchased application to calibration my system more accurate but i dont know why my avr not detects at all. That is such shame that all lower entry level avr even support and my one doesn’t. Please need to update app and let it support all denon avr so people should enjoy denon quality and able to calibration by using app. Thanks

Worth the money!. I bought a Marantz SR8015 and new speakers and I was having a hell of a time with the in-amp Audyssey. The internal amp “app” stripped out my bass and was inconsistent. I read some reviews on forums on this app and decided to give it a go. Honestly, it fixed so many issues I was worried about. The sound is fuller and much more like what I expected. I’m very very happy even though I love had it for one night and not had time to play too much. Yes, it’s worth the money.

Just the app for my Denon AVR X3600H. The Denon has a myriad of settings that I needed as I was never happy with the Audyessy calibration from the amp. I tweaked settings over and over to achieve a sound that I was happy with. This app with a new calibration took the sound to another level , 2ch music and especially surround sound. Being able to manipulate the curves for different speakers is wonderful and I can take the sound to another level again. The Audyssey app clearly needs the processing power of the phone to work properly so if you have a compatible system you need this app. Awesome, get it , love it.

Useful but.... Useful app and the customization options of the receiver’s EQ are great. As previous reviewer noted, the app is overriding the front speaker crossover setting and you cannot reset it to the setting you want in the app. This is easily recreated so I too do not understand why the bug has not been fixed by now.

Noticed a bug. I’ve made several calibrations via the app and uploaded to my Marantz SR6014 and my preference is to limit the correction to less than 500 Hz on all the channels. To verify the correction, I view the filters in the receiver using the “Check Results” but every time I see that my TML / TMR are receiving a full bandwidth correction whereas all the other channels are corrected below 500 Hz as intended. I’m guessing it’s a bug with either the app or the receiver, so hopefully this can be fixed in the next version.

Help! There’s a bug!!. Can’t change crossover hz for front speakers. Every time I edit them to 80hz they default back to either 40hz or 60hz but won’t save my changes. This just recently happened! Please fix.

Marantz 7020. Sure not worth $27 bucks sad

The ultimate addition to your home theatre. The app works perfect for me. Let’s you take out the bbc dip and put your own custom curve. I use the Harman curve which gives the bass a little boost and then a linear roll off to 20k. Love this app!!

Great. Thanks for update. All is good !

Broken with iOS 15. Used to work fine and was the only way to make audyssesy usable. Now crashes any time I try to upload the calibration to the AVR.

Doesn't recognize my receiver. I have the AVR-720w, which is listed as one of the supported models but I can't get the app to find it. I have other apps that recognize the same receiver just fine including the Denon AVR remote app.

Audyssey MultiEQ needs to be updated. This app is easy to use and offers improvements over the default auto-calibration of the AVRs. However, it is basically the same app since its introduction in 2019 or so, with minor updates to make it compatible with newer models (and bug fixes). It seems that since then efforts have been focused solely into PC based Audyssey MultiEq-X Pro, which requires a much pricier non-transferable license per AVR, per userID, and the use of a PC connected to the AVR. So, it’s a lot more powerful than this app, but not nearly as convenient. In my case, I have 3 Denon AVRs at home. Paying for a non transferable license per AVR, per UserID is not an option. But paying let’s say $40 for an improved and expanded X-Pro version of this iOS app would be OK. Please bring some of those advanced features to this app. Wish List… Bring some of REW features to this app. So, keep the current basic full auto setup as the default option, and include the ability of running individual sweeps per speaker (or groups of speakers) and show the results immediately after each sweep, so that enthusiasts may make adjustments to speakers positions or MLP based on those sweeps, and once satisfied with the preliminary results, then run the full auto-setup process. REW is too complicated and cumbersome. This app could be the ideal tool for enthusiasts that want more control over the speaker placement and calibration process, but without the complexity of PC based tools like REW or the high cost (and comparatively higher complexity) of MultiEQ-X Pro. Thanks

Don’t buy!. Stopped working after 2 weeks. App is garbage! No one from Denon/Marantz have any answers. Don’t waste your money!

Doesn’t Work. After doing the calibration with mic (that can be done without this app) there is no control from app to do anything. Not worth the money. Also let me add that Denon has the worst c/s of any electronic company I’ve deal with.

Keeps crashing. Please fix your app, I need to use the curve portion of the app. Now it won’t even let me run calibration without crashing. If the app is no longer working give us another option with using curves, and mid range compensation options.

App is broken. After the latest update, the app shuts down immediately after selecting the plus symbol to create a new curve. This means my receiver is basically useless as Audyssey is terrible without being able to limit correction in the upper frequencies. Goodbye Audyssey, hello Dirac live!

Beautiful music. I installed the app and ran the setup with my 7.4.1 setup. Everything worked like a charm. The subwoofer tuning section worked better than the setup on my Marantz. Truthfully, my ears can't tell any real difference between this and the standard Audyssey setup, but there are lots of pretty (and editable!) graphs and charts that seem like they would let me make changes were I so inclined.

Cherry on top. Allows for East profile swaps if I open a window. Allows removal of mid frequency correction and high frequency adjustment. Allows checking of bass correction. If this won’t run, try reverting the AVR vanity name to default.

App crashing on IOS15!!!!. After I iPhone uploaded to IOS15, the app keeps crashing once I open it or click sent to amplifier. Please fix it!

denon AVR works. decided to try, scare too but working fine , just couldn’t differentiate the curve correction for time being

Total waste of money. Nothing impressive than you already have on your AVR

Doesn't Load All Curves. Test performed successfully but I can't see before and after curves for all speakers.

Crashes on iOS 15 / iPhone 13 Pro. As of the most recent update when trying to create a new curve the app simply crashes.

Does not work for me. I was able to connect to my SR8015 Marantz, but it would not find my subwoofer. So, usless for me. Requested refund.

Other AVR don’t need a pay app. Sony and Yamaha AVR’s have much better Web Interface to fine tune the sound, Sound United (Denon & Marantz) need to update the AVR to allow EQ adjustments for Pro Users, instead charging $20 for an App and/or $200 for one license to adjust what I paid for “A Surround Sound System”.

Limited. The graphic EQ is only 9 bands. This doesn’t allow you the ability to fix critical room issues. There should be an expert mode that enables a 29 band EQ. This would be on par with pro audio graphic EQs.

Works Great!. Never had any issues with the app.

Fine when it’s connecting. Definitely better correction with this app however I’ve had to reset the AVR every time I want to load a new preset.

Works great once you adjust. I pulled my hair out after my first adjustment… but once I spent a little time with it… my denon receiver is sounding great!

Buggy. Having set up my receiver to bi-amp my front speakers, this app seems to not be able to properly measure the speakers and the room. It switches the receiver to use front speakers A, not A+B, and the same happens when using just the B speakers. And a measurement with only A or B is not accepted by the AVR when no-amping. This is frustrating … $20 wasted!

Terrible — must start a completely new calibration. My receiver already went through Audyssey calibration but the app wants to force me to do it all again. There’s no way to just connect and browse the configuration that’s already on the AVR. I am going to seek getting my money back.

Don't buy this app. Don't waste your money. You can do all those things in your av receiver and whatever does this app so your av receiver does the same things and I didn't find anything on this app which your av receiver can not do.

Can’t get past setup. Every time I have tried setting up the calibration I get a communication error. Whether it’s on the 3rd or 7th position, I’ll get through a few before the app decides to stop working with the receiver. It doesn’t even offer to continue or try again, just simply makes you start from the beginning.

Little to No support for this app. I bought this app in order to improve the sound of my Marantz AVR. Nowhere can I find a faq or setup guide. IMHO, Apple should remove this app until either H&M, or Audessey adds a support feature.

Wasted Money. App has issues after 3rd position taking measurements. Tried 3 times using devices and same result with X4800h. Wish I could get my money back!

Perfect after 3rd party optimization!. Audyssey sounds awful. The app is pretty bad. However, it allows you to export the calibration file and run a 3rd party optimization script called audyssey one evo. It gives Dirac like results and it makes the app finally worth it!

Garbage. This app can’t even connect to my AVR. Yes I turned off DHCP, manually tried with my IP, nothing. Don’t waste your cash.

Won’t connect to receiver with iPhone 12 Pro. Worked great on my iPhone 10. Loads like normal, but won’t find a receiver with my new iPhone 12pro. Needs some updating.

Fonts do not support scaling. I run my ipad mini with larger fonts, can’t read any text in the app unless I reset fonts to standard.

Rolls of subs starting at 30hrtz again with latest update. Why????????? It was fine before!

Needs more. Too automatic.. Wanted more function, got this. Needs more adjustability and options which are easily available in manual setup but cancels out the audyssey file.

App crashes after 3rd reading. I purchased this app over a year ago and have been hoping for an update that would let me set up my Denon receiver. It always crashes when doing the microphone in position 3 and it times out.

No Automated Room EQ system is perfect. First off, regardless if you’re using Audyssey XT32, YPAO, MCACC Pro, Dirac Live or ARC, running full range frequency correction isn’t going to improve your overall experience in terms of listening pleasure. Audyssey XT32 does not have the ability to take into account all of the variables that come into play in terms of high frequency output and the “after” graphs are extremely optimistic. Using a UMIK-2 microphone and REW over the years I’ve shown dozens of people that various Room EQ systems are doing them no favors beyond the room transition frequency. There’s a belief amongst the novice or pre-novice home theater crowd that Auto Room EQ can fix anything from poorly engineered speakers built with sub par quality components with minimal R&D to poor speaker placement and even room modes. Obviously that’s not the case with XT32. However, it does consistently flatten my frequency response from the 300hz limit I set it at to the low frequency extension limit of whatever speaker system I happen to be using. For example I know in my room if I’m running my 5.4.4 Atmos system that consists of Mirage OMD-25’s for mains, OMD-15’s for surrounds, two pairs of OMD-5’s for top front and top rear and an OMD-C2 for a CC that the OMD-28’s are going to naturally have a huge 15-20dB peak from about 30hz-70hz as confirmed with REW. After running the Multi EQ app that peak is virtually gone. In terms of the all important subwoofer EQ via the Sub HT I was always able to obtain -/+3dB from 12hz-200hz on average using only the Audyssey EQ, optimal subwoofer placement and proper phase & time alignment; done by manually adjusting the subwoofer 1 & 2 distance. However if you truly want the best possible performance out of your subwoofers spend the $100-$200 on a solid USB Microphone (Dayton Audio UMM6 is about $98, the UMIK-1 is $89 and the UMIK-2 is about $200) and a MiniDSP 2x4 or 2x4HD (the 2x4 is $99 and the HD is $199) so for a little over $200 shipped you’ll have the ability to instantly measure your subwoofers response, generate EQ filters and apply them, remeasure and adjust your parameters accordingly all with REW which is totally free and runs very well on both Windows 10 and Mac OS High Sierra and up. Since you’re only EQing the LFE channel if your computer doesn’t have HDMI outputs REW runs just as well with a TOS-link or mini-TOSLink to TOS-link cable. Obviously the MiniDSP route is for the more advanced user but it’s advantages over a system like Audyssey in terms of end user configurability is unsurpassed. Just remember, just because the Audyssey app doesn’t make your $500 Klipsch home theater in a box speakers sound as good as you think they should and that joke of an 8”, 10” or 12” subwoofer they sell people has the 25hz roll off applied, it doesn’t mean the app doesn’t work. What it means is that no auto EQ system can make bad speakers sound good.

Unless you want to blow your new speakers. This timed out before the unit received the signal to test speaker. Then caused a loud screeching sound hosing my left rear surround speakers. These speakers were professionally set up. I got this app to fine tune but instead it screwed my speaker!

Makes Audyssey Tolerable. The ability to limit the correction bandwidth and change the horrible default Audyssey target is necessary to make Audyssey usable. It would be nice to see Audyssey finally include target curves based on relevant research, like the B&K or Harman curves.

ADY?. How can you view the curve file info? I can not locate a program to open an .ADY file so I can see where my system might be needing a tweak!! How can you read that file? Any help would be nice.

Crashes. I can only do one mic test and it crashes when it gets to mic two it crashes. I tired about 15 times .

Absolute garbage. What a joke of an app. Terrible control, next to no info of what any of the processes are actually doing. A literal scam for how much they are charging. Should be free for how little you get from the app. I feel absolutely ripped off.

App simply doesn’t work. I can’t get through a full cycle of calibration without the app stating “communication error(2)” after mic position 2, I have tried everything. I called the support number that’s in the app and they didn’t even know how the app works.

Not great. Needs a feature. You must run the setup through this app. If you run the setup and then download the app it makes you do it again. This is a waste of time. It should be able to access the curve on the receiver for editing.

Error saving curves. The first time I tried to use the app after all positions received an error unable to save curves, try again. Was not able to save and had to cancel. I now have to start all over is there a app update?

Won’t send calibration to receiver. It says error 1. Communication error when trying to send file. Tried Wi-Fi, Ethernet, reinstalling app. Nothing works. Absolute garbage

Will not connect to avr 7200wa. Just doesn’t work.... i can get everything else to connect but this app

Won't load my curves and has issues.. The app will only load a couple of my curves for the before and after view. The others just say loading. Also it is very slow and loads the data back to your iPad after each test, which is slow. Needs help. It looks like you have to run Audyssey thru this app to view what the changes are. It is much quicker to run Audyssey on screen. No explanation of what your looking at.

Still buggy. If for some reason the mic can’t pickup the signals from the speakers due to ambient room noise, you need to kill the session and start over, even if you are on step 8 of 8. Very frustrating that it doesn’t work as well as it should for a $20 price tag

Latest Version Crashes. The latest version crashes each time I try to connect to my AVR, whether that’s to run a new calibration and send one to the presets. When it works the app is well worth the money, but I fear this problem will persist and won’t be addressed.

Audyssey App is Awesome!. One of the best apps ever! I love the personal touches that can be applied. Once upon a time to do similar things you needed the expensive Pro Kit. Now you can do it through your phone. Genius!!!

Pretty much a ripoff. I would think long and hard if you want to spend $20 on this app. Super, super buggy, and then it won’t even send the EQ from my phone to my X3700H. Ridiculous that I paid more than $1000 for the receiver and then an EXTRA $20 for it to not work at all. Hopefully they fix the issue, but I’m not confident they will.

Sub level not working. I have 2 subs in my system, and when calibration begins, the app will ask to set the volumen level. Within red bar, you have to adjust your sub level to get the speaker icon into the green section. For me, the speaker icon does not move but rather wiggles a little bit and never moves out of the red lower end section of the red bar. I have turned the subs up high and still nothing. Even took the tripod with the mic attached and put it right up to the sub and still nothing. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED!!!
