CALIBRATION OF A SOUND SYSTEM
The installation and calibration of a sound system can be difficult or time-consuming for a user as a user typically cannot easily discern the optimal positioning or setting for sound system speaker. A sound system configuration device can receive one or more sound samples associated with one or more sound system speakers, such as from one or more microphones positioned at or about the sound system. These sound samples can be used to determine a calibration for the sound system. A calibration instruction based on the determined calibration can be provided, for example, via a notification to the user. The calibration instruction can include, for example, a suggested location for a sound system speaker, a suggested calibration setting for a component of the sound system, or both. The calibration instruction can also automatically update or modify a calibration setting for a component of the sound system.
