I'm afraid that the Audyssey doesn't work so why use it theory will not help Axiom sell A1400-8's. Come on John, tell your friend to man up and run Audyssey just to see what happens
It doesn't matter to me about whether that theory sells Axioms or not.
My consistent postion for a long time is that Audessey and auto equalization are just expensive placebos (ie marketing ploys) which certain manufacturers use to sell receivers. Another example of the same problems: you've used the SMS auto equalization I'm sure. Those settings didn't look very pretty did they?
I do agree that the amp shouldn't shutdown though from running it.
Now with regards to my friend, I'll see if he is man enough to run Audessey after a few mojitos.
