YPAO Volume: Increased Fidelity at Low Volumes

Human hearing is subject to different sensitivities depending on frequencies, especially when listening at low volumes. The YPAO Volume function applies loudness equalization correction to automatically adjust the levels of high and low frequencies when changing volume. Following the YPAO calibration results, the equalization correction is optimized to match the new listening conditions.
