You wouldn't think of driving a 'clunker' car with the engine out of tune, the
wheels misaligned, and the transmission slipping. You expect the top performance that your car was designed to deliver.
Home theatre audio is much the same. If you haven't had your system professionally calibrated, it may be giving you "clunker"
performance.
But didn't you spend top dollar on components to ensure that your system would sound great ?
The fact of the matter is, if you put the same system in two different rooms, that system will sound entirely different
in each room. The room in which you install your system is as much a
component of your audio system as the speakers or the amplifier.
This is why audio calibration is so important. You
need to have a professional analyze how audio signals behave in in your room in order to properly set up your system for optimal performance.

You want Impact & Clarity,
Not Boom & Sizzle!
Movie makers and recording engineers follow specific industry standards to capture and record the sound (Dolby, DTS,
SMPTE and THX). If your sound system and listening room are professionally calibrated to accurately reproduce that
industry standard sound, you will be overwhelmed with the experience and sense of "being there:. You will hear the rustle
of leaves in the distance, helicopters will fly right over you head directly in sync with the movie, and voices will be
crystal clear. You won't have to turn it up louder in the quiet parts of the movie to hear what
they're saying, and then turn it back down again during the action scenes anymore! If your home theatre isn't calibrated,
you're being robbed of the full experience the director and audio engineers intended.
Investing in expensive components without calibration can be a terrible waste of money!
