AVPro audio engineers are currently participating in a recommended practices panel that will issue RP1, a series of Recommended Practices that will standardize engineering data that manufacturers publish, with an initial focus on amplifiers and loudspeakers. RP1’s framework references established specifications and methodologies developed by recognized bodies, including the Audio Engineering Society (AES), the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE), IEC, CTA, ANSI , UL.

The ISF, together with members of the AVPro team, has contributed to CEDIA Recommended Practices on video technologies and is now collaborating on RP23, which defines recommended practices and technical parameters to ensure home entertainment systems deliver immersive video experiences that respect the creator’s artistic vision.

Looking ahead, RP33 will establish recommended practices for system measurement, calibration, and verification, providing clients with clear post-installation proof that their systems achieve the intended performance standards.
