Abstract
A computing device generates an audio signal that includes a pattern and transmits the audio signal to the loudspeakers. A measuring device located at a listening position sequentially captures the signal and pattern reproduced by the speakers. The measuring device transmits each captured signal and pattern to the computing device. The computing device determines the frequency and impulse responses for each loudspeaker and equalizes the speakers for the listening position. Some or all of the speakers may be associated with additional listening positions. The computing device may then equalize the speakers based on each listening position. Alternatively, the computing device may calculate an average for some or all of the listening positions and equalize the speakers based on the average.
