What other equipment do you have? What do you need help hooking up? Do you know what cables you need, or maybe already have? A little more information would really help the people who you are asking to help you.

the things that I have are HK7300 AN HKdvd player a17inch front firing sub also a 10 inch sub behind my seating a kinama center an soundstage speakers. the fronts are the 800p they have there own amps for the subs in them. the rears are model 500. this is hooked up to a 4800 infocus projection
tv. I have everything hooked up I was wondering about calibrating it not sure how to use the ez-set mic the 7300 comes with. also im lost when it comes to setting up the subs.xovers an stuff. when using the ez-set do you use the pink noise? or better to use a dts movie? sorry for being long winded.

well I used the remote to set the speaker setting using the pink noise. it did say all speakers passed the test but I noticed the pink noise moves around the speakers faster than the display on the remote says what speaker its on
isthis right? In the manual I can't find anything on how to do this with the mic it comes with that plugs into the headphone jack? I guess the remote has one in it as well.
