Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for adjustment of room sound levels, comprising; driving a speaker with a known waveform, detecting a sound wave from the speaker with at least two microphones wherein the at least two microphones are configured in a known orientation, utilizing the known waveform and the sound wave detected by the at least two microphones and the known orientation of the at least two microphones to generate a room sound dynamic; applying a filter to adjust a sound level to account for the room sound dynamic. The room sound dynamic may be the speaker layout of the room, the room impulse response, the distance or angle of each speaker from the center of the room or other physical constraints that may affect the user's perception of sound coming from a sound system.
