True Target App Features

Crafted through extensive research and countless hours of refinement, this calibration app is a game-changer in the world of audio. Explore its standout features:

Per-Channel EQ

Per-channel EQ optimizes the near-field response of each speaker individually.

Global EQ

Global EQ optimize the target response at the listening position so that all speakers follow the same target curve.

Unified Sound Field EQ

Hybrid of per-channel and global EQ optimizes the near-field response of each speaker individually above the transition region and globally at the main listening position.

Unified Sound Field

Correcting a speaker based on its pseudo-anechoic response gives you the most accurate direct sound above the transition region.

Below it, a more idealized global response is preferred for a cohesive listening experience. Unified Sound Field EQ gives you the best of both by determining the specific transition region in your room and giving you the perfect blend.
