When the volume is adjusted in a multi-speaker system, it is desirable that one speaker does not change volume disproportionately with respect to another speaker. A method is presented for adjusting a volume level of one or more speakers. Each speaker can have a non-standardized relationship between logical volume level that is input to the speaker and sound pressure level that is produced by the speaker. A selected volume level, corresponding to a sound pressure level, can be received via a user interface. A stored lookup table can be accessed to convert the sound pressure level to a first product-specific logical volume level for each speaker. The stored lookup table can tabulate the non-standardized relationship between logical volume level and sound pressure level for each speaker. Data corresponding to the first product-specific logical volume level can be transmitted to each speaker.
A method for adjusting a volume level of a first speaker and a second speaker, the first speaker having a first non-standardized relationship between logical volume level that is input to the speaker and sound pressure level that is produced by the speaker, the second speaker having a second non-standardized relationship between logical volume level that is input to the speaker and sound pressure level that is produced by the speaker, the first non-standardized relationship being different from the second non-standardized relationship, the method comprising:
