Abstract: Examples described herein relate to calibration of audio playback devices in a media playback system using inputs derived from a multi-channel adaptive filter of an acoustic echo canceller. Example playback devices described herein may utilize one or more techniques for calibration, which may be implemented as various calibration procedures. In some implementations, an example playback device may implement a self-calibration procedure, which involves the playback device calibrating (or re-calibrating) itself during operation. Yet further, the playback device may estimate acoustic impulse responses from a multi-channel adaptive filter of an acoustic echo canceller to use as inputs to the self-calibration procedure.
