A True Scientific Solution to the Problems of the Room
Even when the finest speakers are perfectly positioned, the room itself
still has a dramatic impact on any system’s sound, an impact more
profound than that of any individual component. Various solutions have
fallen in and out of favor over the years, but none has solved the problem
of “the room,” until Anthem Room Correction (ARC
®
)technology.
ARC technology is a proprietary digital signal processing system that
allows you to quickly and accurately optimize the performance of your
audio equipment to better suit the unique parameters of your room.
By listening to your room’s acoustic signature, ARC can tune your
equipment to correct for the performance-robbing effects (reflections,
resonances, standing waves, etc.) of the various surfaces and other
obstacles in your room.
ARC is easy to use, and just a few simple steps can optimize your
subwoofer for your unique listening space. ARC is sophisticated, one
of the most accurate and detailed digital room correction technologies
available today. ARC will work tomorrow, too; with constant advances
and updates available for download on the Anthem website.
Now there are THREE ways to calibrate your system using ARC or ARC
Mobile — each takes only a few minutes to complete.

while performing ARC. A noisy computer fan,
a dishwasher or microwave running, etc. can
negatively affect ARC’s measurements.
