an HAA-Certified Audio
Calibration Company. |

My theater sounds good.
Why should I
calibrate it?
| You wouldn't think of driving a
"clunker" car with the engine out of tune, the wheels
misaligned and the transmission slipping. You
expect the top performance that your car was designed
to deliver. Home theater audio is much the same.
If you haven't had your system professionally
calibrated, it may be giving you "clunker"
performance. |

But didn't you spend top
dollar on
components
to ensure that your system would sound great?
| The fact of the matter is, if you put the same
system in two different rooms, that system will sound
entirely different in each room. The room in
which you install your system is as much a component
of your audio system as the speakers or the amplifier.
This is why audio calibration is so important.
You need to have a professional analyze how audio
signals behave in your room in order to properly set
up your system for optimal performance. |
You want Impact and
Clarity,
NOT Boom and Sizzle!
| Movie makers and recording engineers follow
specific industry standards to capture and record the
sound (Dolby, DTS, SMPTE, and THX). If your
sound system and listening room are professionally
calibrated to accurately reproduce that industry
standard sound, you will be overwhelmed with the
experience and sense of "being there." You will
hear the soft rustle of the leaves in the distance,
helicopters will fly right over your head directly in
sync with the movie and voices will be crystal clear.
You won't have to turn it up louder in the quiet parts
of the movie to hear what they're saying and then turn
it back down again during the action scenes anymore!
If your home theater isn't calibrated, you're being
robbed of the full experience the director and audio
engineers intended. |

system can sound like a system costing much more -

experience that you'll enjoy sharing with your family

How do we perform an
audio calibration?
| We analyze and remedy installation and equipment
problems that limit performance, such as incorrect
system or loudspeaker polarities, driver defects and
sound reflections. We calibrate your speaker
levels, set the time delay correctly and determine
optimum locations for your speakers and subwoofer(s)
based on the room acoustics. |
The Earthquake Supernova MKV-15, 600w RMS
Subwoofer
| In order to ensure that you achieve rich,
reference quality bass and smooth subwoofer
integration, we calibrate the subwoofer output level,
crossover, polarity and phase. Our technicians
will equalize the low frequencies so that you do not
miss any audible information or experience loud, boomy
spikes. We will also do a sweep of the room to
check and treat any rattles or hums that occur at
certain frequencies. |
Have us calibrate your audio system
to professional standards and put
the WOW!! into your home theater.
