first time Room Eq,certainly no wizard yet !


Well hello there,
I am a complete newbie on this forum so forgive me for asking a few dumb questions ?

Half of my time I' m into mastering and that for about 10 years now (and …recording/mixing about 20) . I 've never questioned the acoustics of my studio because It is my experience that my work translates well to the "outside-world".
Nevertheless, I am interested in trying Room EQ wizard for the first time.
I own a few EMC8000's and preamps (Avalon, TLA,Focusrite.,etc) so I should be well equipped to start . Problem: English is my third language, so a well written manual would be more than helpful. I can't seem to find one , only help-files (a good start hmmm..) doh:
Anyone with some advice/a link ?

THX,
JM

Is there somewhere I can go to learn how to interpret the results I'm getting? I'd love to use the new features, but have no idea what "good" is or what "bad" is. How do I use the new features to further tweak the sound in my theater?

I have also searched a bit but couldn't find an "acceptance criteria" for such measurements. Here is RT-60 of my center speaker alone at LP.
