Patent attributes
An example playback device is configured to (i) receive, via a network interface, data representing a command to play back audio content, where the audio content is a first type of audio content, (ii) during playback of the first type of audio content via an audio amplifier configured to drive a speaker, apply a first calibration and a second calibration to playback by the playback device, where the first calibration at least partially offsets one or more acoustic characteristics of an environment surrounding the playback device when applied to playback by the playback device, and where the second calibration corresponds to the first type of audio content, and (iii) during playback of a second type of audio content via the audio amplifier configured to drive the speaker, apply a third calibration to playback by the playback device, where the third calibration corresponds to the second type of audio content.
