Hey Randy, it's ironic that you found this to be beneficial for you because I was going to try the same thing the other day. I don't use Audyssey, but it did set my subwoofer distance to 23 feet which is double the actual distance (right to the back of my room). When I was playing music the other day I could really feel the bass on the back wall near my elevator which got me thinking of trying to cut the distance of 23 feet in half and seeing how it sounded in the listening position. After reading your post, I ended up trying it earlier (only had a couple minutes) but I didn't notice a difference; I'll do some more listening tomorrow.

I've never had anyone assist me with the subwoofer crawl, so it's very likely that my subwoofer isn't in the ideal position but I'm very limited as to where to put it. That said, do you think that would have an impact? Probably a silly question.

Thanks for the detailed write up and your findings.
