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.

:

This should be selected for movie contents.

`

5dB:

Select this setting for content that has a very wide 
dynamic range, such as classical music.

`

10dB:

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.

`

15dB:

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.

• If “Dynamic EQ” setting is set to “Off”, this technology cannot 

be used.

Medium:

Activates Medium Compression Mode.

Heavy:

Activates Heavy Compression Mode. This setting 
affects volume the most. It quiets the loud parts, such 
as explosions, and boosts the quiet parts so they can 
be heard.

automatically switched to “Off”.
