Speaker and Headphone Calibration<\/h3>\n
SoundID Reference makes it easy to calibrate both speakers and headphones. The whole process takes about 30 minutes.<\/p>\n
Have you ever experienced something like this?<\/p>\n
When you listen to music at home, it sounds muffled, and the left and right sounds are off.<\/p>\n
The cause is usually the room layout or speaker placement, but even knowing this, we often leave it as is.<\/p>\n

\r\n\t\tRookie of the Year<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\r\n\t\tYou could adjust it with an equalizer, but that depends on your own perception, so it can sound different every time.<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\nWhat we want is a setting that feels “correct” without relying on how it sounds.<\/p>\n
SoundID Reference can calibrate to an ideal sound field in about 30 minutes, requiring minimal effort. Unlike human-based adjustments, it provides accurate calibration.<\/p>\n
It can calibrate not only speakers but also headphones. It supports over 480 types of headphones, and you can calibrate them by simply selecting your headphone model.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nThe microphones included in the set have serial numbers, and “variations due to individual differences” are also corrected.<\/p>\n
This allows for more accurate calibration.<\/p>\n
If you don’t purchase a product that comes with a microphone, you can use your own.<\/p>\n
\r\n\t\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\tAdvisor<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\r\n\t\tHowever, using the official microphone will result in higher calibration accuracy, so you might end up wanting to “calibrate with the official microphone” anyway.<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\nInstalling SoundID Reference<\/h2>\n
For this explanation, we’ll use the version that comes with a microphone. Before you can take measurements, you need to register the serial number of the microphone.<\/p>\n

After you install SoundID Reference, let’s do speaker calibration. It’s not difficult, and there’s a video explanation. I’ve included some screenshots from the video to help you.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nJust be sure to follow one important step. When measuring the listening spot (see the photo below), you’ll need to increase the volume quite a bit. It’s best to do the calibration during the day instead of late at night.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nOnce you finish calibrating, a preset will be created. In the photo below, it’s labeled “2.0(Stereo)myroom JBL Pebbles.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nAt the bottom of the screen, you can select options like:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Flat Target<\/li>\n
- Dolby<\/li>\n
- Custom Target<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This allows you to instantly recall sound settings that match your preferences.<\/p>\n
As for headphone calibration, presets are available for different types of headphones, as explained earlier. Just select the preset that matches the model number of your headphones.<\/p>\n
