Thanks,
I checked for updates at the time and was current. There may be more now but it is not a big concern for me. I could definitely use some bass tweaking for sure but am otherwise happy with my sound with just db levels calibrated manually.

The mike was screwed into a tripod, ear height on the center of the couch where I sit. Slightly above the backrest so open on all sides. Pretty much where it needs to be, I think, and the mounting hole on the bottom pretty much dictates correct orientation.

With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.
