Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion What's New At Axiom Exciting News From Axiom!

I have never calibrated mine and it sounds amazing.

Yeah, Chris; after studying the 708 manual I went over the process step-by-step. Charles connects 2-channel analog source to DSP inputs, then connects DSP front outputs to 708 multi-channel analog front inputs and DSP back outputs to 708 multi-channel analog surround inputs. Then, Receiver and On are pressed on the remote to turn the receiver on. The multi-channel analog inputs are selected by pressing BD/DVD. A mode, probably Direct since no further processing is wanted, is selected. If the 708 front terminals are wired to the front drivers and the surround terminals to the back drivers, all drivers should be working unless something in the DSP and/or receiver is defective.

You may be guessing wrong, Alex. First, there's the separate calibration step which doesn't involve room EQ. Also, even assuming that there would be a conflict between the DSP processing on the LFR1100s and the Audyssey room EQ processing on them which would make it inadvisable to combine them, the Audyssey processing in most implementations can be set to bypass any EQ on the front speakers and apply it only to the other speakers.

So, did i read that right... You just got yourself back on the hook? Well, when i eventually buy a new processor that is......

I got a partial delivery today. 1 LFR, and the DSP box. I wound up opening the LFR on the front lawn, due to my ceiling being to low at 95" high... Here is the aftermath..


Here is the LFR between one of the M60's and an EP-600

And without the grills.


Here are some photos of the DSP box, Charles took some as well.

I got a close up of the Axiom logo, this is CNC machined out of the 1/4" aluminum, i though it was a very nice touch.

Here are some photos of the back, i got the optional center channel board. The XLR connectors are neutrik connectors which i though was a nice.



I connected all of the XLR's, i though i would take a photo with the cables connected because looking at the connections empty is one thing, but seeing them filled is something completely different.



Also, the power supply in the DSP box is pretty darn big.. I was VERY tempted to take the cover off of my DPS to take some internal photos... However, i decided i would leave that to someone at the factory, and leave my warrantee intact.

take the top off , they will never know.

So the unit is capable of providing fresh-squeezed OJ as well?

if i posted photos of the insides, it would be obvious..


Mark,

Yup, from Florida Oranges...


Actually it was what i had handy.... The Fedex guy showed up just before i started peeling it....

Alex great looking front yard! With all that very thick and lush green grass, with no weed to be found. OOOHH, and that audio gear doesn't look half bad either.

That doesn't look anything like my yard.
