TVs.
Sound bar speaker houses the left, center, and right channel speakers in a single box.
[2] Uses well-established Audyssey room equalization technologies to expand the
listening area and reproduce dynamic and powerful sound.
“Dynamic EQ”, “Dynamic Volume”, and “BassXT” enable higher quality audio.
These functions are described later in the manual.
Audyssey Laboratories is the industry leader in sound equalization solutions for professional and
consumer audio. Established in 2002, Audyssey was founded on a comprehensive understanding
of the negative effects of room acoustics on sound reproduction. This landmark study took $6
million dollars of research funds, five years of theoretical and experimental work, the resources of the
prestigious USC Immersive Audio Laboratory and decades of shared scientific expertise by Audyssey
founders Prof. Tomlinson Holman, Prof. Chris Kyriakakis, Dr. Sunil Bharitkar and Philip Hilmes. The
resulting groundbreaking acoustical correction technologies provided the basis for Audyssey, which
continues to develop new breakthrough technologies in audio signal processing, room acoustics and
psychoacoustics.
