When you put on
your favorite CD or DVD movie, are you hearing
more or less than what was recorded on the disc?
Is your room less than perfect? For that matter,
are you aware of the effects that your room is
certainly having on the final sound coming from
your system?
Are you hearing
sounds that come from your system, but have
no relation to any known musical instruments?
These sounds, usually down in the mid to deep
bass, are often unwanted resonance caused by
the interaction of the speakers with your listening
room.
Once upon a
time, many folks thought of equalizers as toys
and believed that room analysis was pretty much
a waste of time. After all, if you cannot
move the wall, why find out that the wall is
a problem? Certainly, there are always
some factors in a system that simply cannot
be corrected. And true that when equalizers
are used without any sort of real data support,
they are little more than expensive toys.
But science is an important part of acoustical
problem-solving and many of the problems your
system might have can be identified and solved.
Correctly and often with very little pain to
your wallet or checkbook.

A-V
Services offers a room
analysis based strictly
on real time data. For a one-time fee of
$100, we will test your system and analyze your
listening room. We use THX-designed multi-channel
test discs sending a range of signals to a calibrated
microphone attached to an Audio Control SA-3052
Real Time Analyzer. With this instrument
and the data we gather, we can determine frequency
response and sound pressure level for each individual
speaker and for the system as a whole. We
can pinpoint weaknesses in the gear and locate
the "sweet spots" in the room for best
listening. We can configure your multi-channel
system levels correctly. Acoustical problems
will show up on the Analyzer's LED screen and
because this is done in real time, solutions can
be implemented and the results measured and seen
immediately.

Changing speaker
placement or room furnishings is often enough
to solve many of these acoustical problems,
but for those situations that go beyond physical
adjustments, we also offer the Audio Control
line of high-quality equalizers to scientifically
"tame the beast".
We will adjust
your speaker levels, set your rear channel delays
properly, and if you are using an equalizer
or decide to purchase one, we will be able to
take out most if not all unwanted resonance
from your system. And best of all,
your analysis fee will be applied toward
the purchase of any new Audio Control equalizer!
If you are serious
about your audio quality, this is a win-win
offer for you. No magic, no smoke or mirrors,
just hard data and our experience at solving
problems.
