Wow! The light bulb just turned on! Thanks brucek. After John's reply, re-reading your post on the RTA and reading over the highlights for version 4.10 it finally clicked.
JohnM was spot on. I'm using the loopback instead of the soundcard .cal file so I put the right channel sound card output into my right channel aux input. Now I've set the system for mono operation but noticed I've selected 7 speakers to play on the mono channel even though I had only 1 speaker physically hooked up. So, the delay was working (which all 7 channels are set at different lengths) coupled with the fact that I'm running the front 3 (L/C/R) thru a Rane THX44.

You can also verify that the System Delay function is being correctly reported by simply using a loopback cable on the soundcards right channel (from line-out to line-in) and do a full measure sweep.
It should return ~0.0 msec = 0.0 feet................

Now the lightbulb part - Based on the measurement you suggest (which I will do) and I get the expected results I should be able to add the Rane to the chain and that will give me the delay of the Rane, No?
I'll bet there is more fun to be had as the Rane should introduce a delay and I've not added that to the measurement(delay) distance in the A/V processor.
Man, when I grow up I want to be like brucek, JohnM and Wayne P.
