I don't know, so far this may be a keeper. Send your address just in case though:bigsmile:When you get bored with the 5508, please feel free to send it my way!!![]()

Fine. That's all I am looking for.I will definitely report back on what I assume is the differenceonder:
Thank you very much for taking the time and explaining the curve. I think I am starting to understand a little about it now.Ahh.. I see what you're saying. I think you explained it well. Well, the editor shows the frequency range, low on the left, high on the right. And it shows steps of say, 1K, 5K, 10K.
What ranges go to your midrange or tweeter depend on the crossover built into the speaker. But if the speaker has a tweeter, I would probably say that 5K+ is probably a safe range to say goes to the tweeter. If you want to add some points to the woofer, go for the left, midrange, somewhere near the left/middle, and tweeter on the right.
When I say roll off, what I mean is the downward slope. When there is a downward slope towards the right, that's a roll off on the high frequencies. The steeper the "hill" the quieter the high frequencies will be (the more they are attenuated)- as you get higher and higher.
You can see some different examples of how it can equalize the high frequencies here:

The SMPTE option has the biggest impact on lowering the levels of high frequencies.
I believe there is a way to switch back to XT32 by storing all your settings before running Pro. After Pro, you can switch back to XT32 but, then, getting Pro back would require running Pro (although without the measurement stage). Tedious.Sorry Kal, I hope I didn't come off as mocking Audyssey Pro.
I was just wondering if there was an simple way to revert back to XT32 settings from Pro so the differences would be easier to hear. This will be my first time using Pro so unsure what to expect.
Your response to begin with is relatively good. I don't see a whole lot of room for improvement. You could maybe tweak the peaks a little bit, but it might not be audible.Thank you very much for taking the time and explaining the curve. I think I am starting to understand a little about it now.
See attached results of my last calibration. Do you see any improvements? Should I flatten out the left sides of the graphs?
I've not! I've been slacking off. I built a superchunk so I'm sure that's changed the room acoustics a little bit too.Jim,
Did you do any more calibrations?
You're gonna LOVE the way bass traps work! I think acoustical treatments are some of the best bang-for-the-buck improvements you can do for a room, right after choosing decent speakers.I've not! I've been slacking off. I built a superchunk so I'm sure that's changed the room acoustics a little bit too.
Maybe this weekend with some luck.
Hey Matnick,Thank you very much for taking the time and explaining the curve. I think I am starting to understand a little about it now.

Does it make that much difference for the surrounds?You might leave the mid comp in for your surrounds. This takes some tweaking with the curves
I took it off for my Vantages and left it on for the rest. Seems fine so far. But a lot of tweaking in the edits
