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.
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. Audyssey 
Dynamic EQ works in tandem with Audyssey MultEQ XT to provide 
well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.
