I will try this at 10 and 15db -- I haven't testing with B-ray movies
¦Reference Level
Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset
??0dB:
This should be used when listening to movies.
??5dB:
Select this setting for content that has a very wide
dynamic range, such as classical music.
??10dB:
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.
??15dB:
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 MultEQ XT 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 nonfilm
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, these technologies
