in order to apply a house curve and use audyssey I do the following;

- turn off audyssey
- sweep and EQ to a flat target
- run the audyssey process
- reset my filters, sweep and EQ to a house curve target

In my room and with my setup I find that any other approach leads Audyssey to attempt to tackle the house curve as it wants to go flat. The waterfall shows up what it is doing quite clearly.

It's quite time consuming running both audyssey and a BFD but it's worth it as audyssey does a great job on the mains as well as around the crossover.

That is more or less what I originally attempted. I think the problem lies in my peak between 10-15Hz that I cannot flatten with the BFD. Who would have guessed that Audyssey would even recognize anything that low? Too bad it doesn't try an equalize it instead of just cutting the entire sub output.

I have a few ideas on my testing. One will be to not only turn down my sub amp -even more- for both subs. I think I will also try only using one sub when running Audyssey. I could also re-tune my sub enclosure to try and minimize that peak at tuning (12.8Hz).

Thanks,
Bill
