Is there any way to load a .cal file for the audyssey mic? If so you could manipulate the cal file to make audyssey aim for a house curve.
Wouldn't that be great? I believe I read in the Audyssey thread on the AVS forum that the mic and calibration is part of their "secret formula", and they or Denon would not make it available.

I think the method of using the BFD to flatten the sub, then run audyssey, then run BFD house curve sounds like the best option.

Hakka.
Well, I tried fooling Audyssey (without the BFD) by always placing the mic back at the first position for each reading. I would sneak in and move it just before the sub measure. I then took a few measurements and applied filters, changed levels to give a good house curve. Result.....got busy and haven't had time to acually sit and listen.

I think you are right though. Probably should have flattened the sub before measurements.
