You're probably right. I didn't do any calibration with rx-v1400 at all. When i look at the equalizer, either Treble ro Bass, they all set to 0db. In general i like rx-v1400 , especially I can still hear the sound very clear when i turn the volume to half way ( as i remember, it -20db). It's just a little bright to me. Note that I didn't do any calibartion yet.
