HAA Link® Software Launched by Home Acoustics Alliance

he Home Acoustics Alliance (HAA) has officially released HAA Link®, a powerful new calibration software designed to simplify and professionalize audio tuning for custom integrators and high-performance home theater systems.

HAA Link promises to eliminate the biggest frustrations in system calibration, making standards-based acoustic optimization faster, more accurate, and far more accessible than ever before.

  • Calibration Without the Back-and-Forth
  • Key Features of HAA Link
  • First Official Integration with AudioControl Hyperion Series
  • Enabling a New Era for Integrators

Calibration Without the Back-and-Forth

For years, integrators have struggled with the tedious process of switching between measurement software and a processor’s onscreen display. HAA Link solves this pain point by combining measurement and control in one seamless environment.

“Until now, calibration via a component’s onscreen display has been a nightmare for integrators,” said Gerry Lemay, founder of the Home Acoustics Alliance. “HAA Link makes it simple and furthers our goal to formalize calibration as a repeatable, standards-based discipline.”

The software works together with the free HAA CinemaTools companion app for iPad, allowing real-time adjustments directly from the tablet while bypassing the processor’s menu entirely.

Key Features of HAA Link

  • Real-time adjustment of critical calibration settings
  • Simultaneous sound analysis and control
  • 14 precision parametric EQ filters per channel
  • Professional speaker leveling and phase alignment tools
  • Built-in suite of high-quality test tones
  • Global EQ controls for faster system alignment
  • Multiple HAA Mode presets (Movie, Music, Night, etc.) for end-user flexibility while maintaining calibrated reference modes

The software fully supports CEDIA RP22 and RP32 standards, ensuring integrators can deliver consistent, high-performance results with confidence.

First Official Integration with AudioControl Hyperion Series

AudioControl’s flagship Hyperion Series AV processors are the first components to be officially certified with HAA Link. Available as a professional feature upgrade, the software brings advanced calibration capabilities typically found only in ultra-high-end gear to more systems.

“We’re excited to partner with Gerry Lemay and the Home Acoustics Alliance to bring HAA Link to the Hyperion Series,” said Tom Devine, Vice President of Marketing at AudioControl. “Introducing new calibration technologies is always a win—for our partners and for the end users who get to enjoy the results.”

HAA Link will be available for licensing to other qualifying receiver and processor manufacturers, opening new revenue streams for integrators through professional acoustic calibration services.

Enabling a New Era for Integrators

Whether you are an experienced calibrator or just starting to offer calibration services, HAA Link lowers the barrier to entry while maintaining rigorous professional standards. This creates exciting new business opportunities for custom installers who want to differentiate themselves with properly tuned, high-performance home cinemas.

Publisher

Marco Lisi is the publisher of Best of High End, part of AV Concepts BV. His path into audio started early: as a teenager he was drawn into the world of free radio, presenting shows and living immersed in music every day. In his early twenties he ran his own production studio for five years, creating jingles and commercials — hands-on training in sound design, pro-audio workflows, and critical listening through studio monitors that still shapes how he evaluates gear today. He also spent years DJing in clubs before moving into publishing, first at two earlier online magazines before founding Best of High End. His hi-fi and home cinema passion was inherited from his father, an inveterate system-swapper. Marco's first setup — a confirmation gift — paired AKAI separates with entry-level Bowers & Wilkins speakers, a brand he stayed loyal to for years as his system grew from stereo into full surround and home cinema. Like many enthusiasts, he went through an extended "audiophile" phase chasing the next upgrade, before settling into a more grounded view: gear as a means to enjoy music and film, not an end in itself. Years of critical listening have given him a well-trained ear — the ability to characterize a system or pinpoint a change in the chain quickly and accurately. Just as important, his teaching background (a Belgian "regent" degree in Dutch language) gives him the tools to translate those listening impressions into clear, readable writing.
