What is ypao volume?

YPAO Volume is an advanced sound technology that automatically applies loudness equalization (EQ) to the audio that comes through your AV receiver, applying just the right amount to compensate for the volume level. The lower the volume control setting, the more EQ it adds.

Does ypao EQ the sub?

Both XT and XT-32, EQ the sub down to 10Hz, where YPOA does not. If you think that you might want to add a second sub down the road (which is likely if you are like most of us) or if you simply want the best version of Audyssey, then you would be better off getting an AVR with XT-32, Audyssey’s most advanced version.

What is PEQ Equalizer?

Abbreviation for “parametric EQ” or “parametric equalizer.” A type of equalizer having several “parameters” for control of various filters that can be applied to audio signals. Parametric equalizers are most widely used in situations where very fine control over the audio signal is desired.

Is DRC good for music?

Yes. Dynamic compression is always bad for the overall quality. It’s not only that you are reducing the very apparent difference in loudness between loud and quiet scenes… You are also reducing all the little nuances that make it sound crisp and alive.

Should DRC be on or off?

Obviously for the “best” experience, you should leave DRC set to “off”, but for practical reasons (like late night viewing) you may want to turn it on.

Does ypao change EQ?

THROUGH: no EQ is applied.

Does an equalizer make a difference?

A graphic equalizer gives you ultra-precise tone control. A quality EQ, properly used, can fine-tune even a high-end system. It makes the difference by catering to your listening preferences and allowing you to restore great sound that gets disrupted by your noisiest, most hard-to-handle component — your car.

When should you use EQ?

Only use EQ to remove nasty frequencies (by cutting) or to change the character of a sound and add interest (by boosting). You CAN’T use EQ to make a poor recording sound good. You can’t add stuff that isn’t there – only emphasize stuff that is.

Should I keep DRC on or off?
