Audyssey Room Correction

Optimize your audio experience with Audyssey MultEQ XT calibration, which adapts the sound reproduction to your individual listening environment. With the included microphone, MultEQ XT measures and analyzes playback in different channels, producing precise digital filters that optimize the frequency balance of each channel. Audyssey Dynamic Volume smooths out distracting volume spikes (like TV commercials), allowing you to listen at lower levels and still enjoy clear dialogue, music, and effects. Audyssey Dynamic EQ ensures full-bodied playback at all listening volumes. The Audyssey MultEQ Editor app (available for purchase in app stores) allows experienced users to go "under the hood" for more precise adjustment and customization of audio playback. The app is available for both iOS and Android. 

Web Management via Browser

Easy control with a smart device in your back pocket. WEB management allows the amplifier to be configured via a web browser. A great feature for fine-tuning while simultaneously playing your desired audio and video source.
