Reference Level Offset : Audyssey Dynamic EQ takes the standard film
mixing level of 85 dB SPL during –20 dB FS input as its reference level.
However, since standardization is lacking outside the film industry, the
reference level of media contents may not be appropriate. In order to
view such contents, Reference Level Offset of Dynamic EQ has available
offsets of 5 dB, 10 dB and 15 dB.
0dB : Suitable for viewing movies.
5dB : Suitable for listening to classical music and other content mixed
at a high level.
10dB : Suitable for listening to jazz and other audio sources with a wide
dynamic range. Also suitable for viewing TV.
15dB : Suitable for listening to pop, rock music and other content with an
extremely wide dynamic range.
