Abstract:
Techniques described herein may involve dynamically adjusting the equalization of multiple speakers in a playback device. An example implementation involves a playback device emitting, via a first speaker, a first audio signal and emitting, via a second speaker, a second audio signal. The playback device may detect, via a microphone, an audio signal representing (i) at least a portion of the first audio signal and (ii) at least a portion of the second audio signal. The implementation may further involve the playback device determining one or more reflection characteristics based on the detected audio signal. The example implementation may also involve identifying a first audio setting and a second audio setting based on one or more reflection characteristics and applying (i) the first audio setting to playback of media content via the first speaker and (ii) the second audio setting to playback of media content via the second speaker.

Claim (Index 34):
The method of  claim 33 , wherein identifying the first audio setting and the second audio setting based on the feature of the operating environment comprises:\n determining (i) a first difference between the determined response of the operating environment to the first audio signal and a desired response of the first transducer and (ii) determining a second difference between the determined response of the operating environment to the second audio signal and a desired response of the second transducer; determining, as the first audio setting, a first equalization configured to offset at least a portion of the first difference; and determining, as the second audio setting, a second equalization configured to offset at least a portion of the second difference.
