Only one thing wrong with disabling MCACC. If you are going to be using it, wouldn't you want to know which speaker sounds best with it on?

I would make 2 judgements, then. One with MCACC on, and on for the correct speaker set, (I'm a good one for forgetting to switch stuff like that during a test). One with MCACC off.

Fortunately with Pioneer Elites, you can save multiple MCACC settings.

When you say Aperion's sound less fatiguing to the ear, to me, that means they probably are missing high end detail. When I say to use Pioneer's X-CURVE, I meant that as an experiment, to see if attenuating the highs would make them sound more like the Aperions. I was curious to know if it made that much of a difference. (You may have to run several tests, because X-CURVE works in 1/2 decimal increments.)
