thanks guys,
Adrian - you mentioned some benefit from Audyssy - is that with QS4 or QS8's? Did you have any trouble getting a "read" on test tones coming from those speakers?
That would be QS8's. I believe I've run Audyssey 3 times over the last year and I know my left surround is a bit iffy, in that Audyssey has given me some fairly different readings on that particular speaker(-3 to -6db). I'm thinking that because that side is fairly devoid of furniture and basically just bare drywall, it is boosting freq's so Audyssey is taming that. I'd feel better if I got consistant readings on that side though...maybe I'll try it again and see where it's at when I get time.
