About Audyssey 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. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works well by itself. 
However, if Audyssey 2EQ
®
is on, the two technologies
work in tandem 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. 
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 Volume works fine 
by itself, but can also be used with 
Audyssey Dynamic EQ. When both are on, 
Audyssey Dynamic EQ adjusts the perceived bass 
response, tonal balance, surround impression, and 
dialog clarity whether watching movies, flipping 
between television channels, or changing from stereo to 
surround sound content, when Dynamic Volume adjusts 
the volume.
