Menu Audyssey Source Setup The tone for each speaker is set automatically by Audyssey 2EQ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup. To enable the following settings, you must first perform the Room Correction and Speaker Setup (➔ page 27). • These technologies cannot be used when: - A pair of headphones is connected, or - Direct listening mode is selected, or - The USB input selector is selected. ■ Audyssey ` Off ` Movie: Select this setting for movie material. The Audyssey indicator lights. ` Music: Select this setting for music material. The Audyssey indicator lights. Note • When "Audyssey Quick Start" has been used for measurement, the "Audyssey" cannot be selected. • Audyssey equalizing does not work for DSD sources. ■ Dynamic EQ ` Off ` On: Audyssey Dynamic EQ® becomes active. The Dynamic EQ indicator lights. 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. Advanced Operations ■ Reference Level Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset `0 dB: This should be selected for movie contents. `5 dB: Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic range, such as classical music. `10 dB: 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. `15 dB: 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. Note • If "Dynamic EQ" setting is set to "Off", this technology cannot be used. To be continued En-46
