I manually entered the actual distances for my speakers in my receiver. After reading this I hooked up my mic and ran YPAO on my Yamaha. It set the distance of my sub to 22ft. Actual distance is 9-10 feet. The mains (M22s) YPAO set perfectly to the actual distances.

Normally I just use the Parametric EQ of YPAO and tell it to skip all other tests. My receiver also lets me edit the Parametric EQ to my own tastes.

I'll have to listen to hear any difference. I'm not sure I have the movie Master and Commander.
