Abstract
Example techniques described herein relate to calibration of a playback device. Using example techniques, a playback device may self-calibrate by measuring a self-response and using a transfer function to map the self-response to an estimate of a room response. The playback device may determine calibration settings to at least partially offset acoustic characteristics of an environment surrounding the playback device as represented in the estimated room response. The transfer function may be derived from a principal component analysis of a dataset including multiple room responses, perhaps as measured during a multi-point calibration process of the playback device in various environments and conditions.
