[Sniderhouse]

The cable was it! I got nice clean levels and a measurement that I can work with. The response isn't as bad as I thought it might be and should be easily remedied by some equalization. Now to try some filters and do some listening.

I do have some questions about re-doing my Audyssey and applying a house curve (like, when?), but that's a topic for another thread.

Thanks for getting me past this hump.
