Loudness compensation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Loudness compensation activated on a NAD amplifier.
Loudness compensation is a setting found on some hi-fi equipment and equalisers that boosts high and low frequencies.[1] This can be used to compensate for the fact that as the volume of audio decreases, the ear's perception of the extreme high and low frequencies decreases.[2]
