you won't be able to carry out the loopback test to create the calibration file for the soundcard
Bruce, you just had to go and spoil my parade, didn't ya Seriously, I was thinking that the only kind of connection where each speaker could be measured seperately (other than 5.1/7.1 analog inputs or physically disconnecting speakers not being tested) would be a digital connection. What other options would we have (the help file in REW says that the optimal connection would be one which allows for each speaker to be isolated). As maneuen said, letting the AVR do the signal routing would seem to be ideal. Is there a sound card that has optical input/outputs? What about sound meters?
