I have to agree with Bridgman.
The EQ onboard those receivers certainly seems like a good idea, but in reality the number of bands they even use to attempt equalization is so small, it's laughable.

Both Bren and Alan can attest to the difficulties in trying to EQ a room i'm sure, but personally trying to do it with a $40 (if that) microphone boxed with a $600 receiver somehow doesn't fly with my sensibilities.
I would rather rearrange my furniture and add a bookshelf, but some folks prefer and easy, all-in-one solution.

My Toshiba RPTV also has an auto calibration to align the guns but everytime i've pressed that button, the convergence is so awful i have completely separate red and green people on the screen.
A good idea, helpful to the HT newbies, but in reality, it is really not that good and manual calibration is alot more effective.
