With Audyssey Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound
even when listening at low volume levels.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating
sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into
account human perception and room acoustics. It does so
by selecting the correct frequency response and surround
volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content
sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not
just at reference level.
■ Reference Level
Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset
`0dB:
This should be selected for movie contents.
`5dB:
Select this setting for content that has a very wide
dynamic range, such as classical music.
`10 dB:
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.
`15 dB:
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.
Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film reference.
To achieve the same reference level in a home theater
system each speaker level must be adjusted so that
–30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise
produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening
position. A home theater system automatically calibrated
by Audyssey 2EQ will play at reference level when the
master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. At that
level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.
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.
Audyssey 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.
Note
• If “Dynamic EQ” setting is set to “Off”, this technology cannot
be used.
