About 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.
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 constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines
information from incoming source levels with actual output sound
levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction
solution.
<DYNAMIC EQ>
Audyssey Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ
XT to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume
level.
About 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. Whenever 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.
NOTE
You cannot use either the "Dynamic EQ" or "Dynamic Volume"
function if you conduct auto setup when the microphone connected
to the V.AUX L terminal is not the prescribed accessory.
