About Audyssey Dynamic EQ

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deterio- rating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics.

Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user- selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance, and surround impression that remain con- stant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for deliv- ering a loudness correction solution.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ XT32 to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume

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. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. When- ever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. 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 whether watching movies, flipping between television channels, or changing from stereo to surround sound content.
