Reference Level Offset
Audyssey Dynamic EQ
®
is referenced to the standard film mix level. It
makes adjustments to maintain the reference response and surround
envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However,
film reference level is not always used in music or other non-film
content.
Dynamic EQ
®
Reference Level Offset provides three offsets from the
film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when
the mix level of the content is not within the standard.
[Selectable items]
0dB
: This is the default setting and should be used when
listening to movies (Film Ref).
5dB
: Select this setting for content that has a very wide
dynamic range, such as classical music.
10dB
: Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider
dynamic range. This setting should also be selected for
TV content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film
reference.
15dB
: Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program
material that is mixed at very high listening levels and has
a compressed dynamic range.
Setting is enabled when “Dynamic EQ
®
” is “ON” (vpage 41).
