Audyssey MultEQ Editor app

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Users: Don’t waste your money on this app—buy a different receiver with a better calibration system. App developers: Handle problems during calibration better, including by saving work along the way. The app has failed with a “communication error” every time have I have attempted to calibrate my system, even on a rock-solid home network. The errors randomly occur during the calibration process, and when they happen all of the time spent until that point on calibration (many minutes) is wasted because the app doesn’t save the data collected along the way. Super frustrating and dumb. No amount of calibration can be worth this amount of wasted time.

I just bought the app, it showed $19.99 and it charged me $41.52! Why?

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.
