I was interested to hear that he is not a fan of EQ in addition to multiple subs. Maybe I jumped the gun on my SMS-1? \:\)

I think his point was more specific to the idea that an equalizer can only setup the room response for a limited area "the sweet spot".
So along those lines, unless you are single male who watches alot of lone videos in a room with a single chair, then what's the point?
Optimize one spot, possibly worsen others around it.

People can add all sorts of doo dads to their rooms, treatments and such, but ultimately, you will never make every room seat experience the same response. It is a fight one cannot win.
I keep seeing people try though.
Spending tons of bucks to do it.
Spend the cash on some real wood veneer units instead and for once, try to enjoy the system.
I swear some people take more time to tweak than to actually listen to the damn thing.

That's my Newcastle Brown rant for the afternoon.

Good video Ian.
8 minutes of quality thoughts. Next time you should be waving your arms around more when you talk like a crazy Frenchman (yes i am part French and yes i have many French friends who do this all the time).
I love animations.
