Re: Automatic Calibration Irks...


So should I leave the subwoofer distance as what the Auto EQ set it at. I think it had it at 15 feet away when it was only 9. All the other speakers were bang on almost to the inch.

I would think that +12dB on all channels cancels out the effect. It would pretty much be the equivalent of turning up the main volume dial 12dB since all channels are increased by that much.

The surrounds and fronts are the same speakers, RB81's, but the fronts are about 9 feet away from the mic and the surrounds are about 5½ feet away. You would think that if all channels where put up to +12dB the speakers would be equidistant.

Maybe the settings will change when I move the stuff into their dedicated room. That "should" happen in a couple weeks. I'll repost the result when I do.
