I have been trying to decide If I like my audessey results or not as well... for some songs it can get rid of that boomy sound some so thats nice... but overall I can't say it sounds better- just different. You can exdperiment with it further by copying the eq curve and manually adjusting it to your liking.

I liked the Audyssey results well enough for movies, but not for two-channel listening. Yes it evened out the bass response, but it seemed the life was sucked out of the music--seemed flat and with no dynamics or spaciousness to the presentation. Maybe I'll have to experiment some more.

I can tell you only one thing for certain, if you accidentally set your Denon EQ on and to the [Flat] setting.....
It will suck the life out of everything you listen to.

I think I need one of those ignition disabling units on my remote control that shuts off all the calibration buttons unless I can blow a low alcohol reading into it.

You know, I think I had it on the "flat" setting. . .

One might think that flat would mean the same thing as not having it turned on. Definitely not the same.

I love how the Denon manual explains that in detail. . .
