Calibration

A loudspeaker’s acoustic performance is dependent on its environment – e.g. the physical properties of the surroundings or the placement within the room. upHear Calibration optimizes the playback in various rooms and positions, rendering the environment irrelevant.
After adjusting the device in a separate setup procedure, upHear Calibration can improve the listening experience during audio playback for an uninterrupted listening enjoyment.
Either dedicated external measuring microphones or the microphones bult into smart devices can be used, adapting the process to the requirements of the target groups and balancing comfort and precision.

Benefits in typical application

External Microphone Calibration: Most accurate adaptation of the playback to the desired listening position

Self-Calibration: Limited need for user interaction through the use of built-in microphones, no additional devices required
