Audio Settings and Operations
Audyssey Technology
Audyssey EQ
®
Audyssey EQ is based on the same core technology as
Audyssey MultEQ that is used for automatic correction of
room acoustics. Audyssey EQ uses time-domain filters
to correct problems that arise from speaker drivers and
enclosures and is calibrated to account for the acoustical
problems in a typical listening environment.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ
®
Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating
sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account
human perception and room acoustics. Audyssey Dynamic
EQ works in tandem with Audyssey EQ to provide well-
balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.
Audyssey Dynamic Volume
TM
Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large
variations in volume level between television programs,
commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of
movies. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic
Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted
automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance,
surround impression and dialog clarity remain the same.
Audyssey BassXT
TM
Audyssey BassXT enables low frequency drivers to produce
deeper bass by intelligently monitoring incoming audio signals
and extending driver performance to its maximum safe limits
at all volume levels. This enables the system to produce lower
frequencies than would be possible with a traditional system
of the same size.
