Ultimate audio performance within the listening area starts with the loudspeakers and the room. How the Installer gets the loudspeaker system to integrate within the listening space is what can make or break even the best assembled audio systems. In our article Better Sound Through Active Room Correction (recommended reading before reading this review) the important metrics of loudspeaker placement and selection, room acoustics, and how to best integrate all of these variables using the new Audyssey Pro MultEQ enabled processor for the ultimate theatrical experience in the comforts of your home was discussed. We now expand upon this with a formal review of the Audyssey MultEQ Pro sound equalization processor.
