I'm starting this thread as a home for questions and comments about ARC (including ARC Genesis), independent of the particular processor being used. I hope people will participate and make it a useful resource.
I'd like to start by asking a rather "meta" question. Anthem seems to be a company that does not operate its own forum (as PS Audio does), nor do they participate in independent forums (as Bryston does). Is there a good way to forward requests and suggestions to Anthem for improving ARC, or other products? I also own Bryston gear, and it's gratifying that James Tanner responds to almost any communication, even if the answer is not what one wants to hear.
A simple request for ARC would be better displays when adjusting parameters. In particular, I'd like a vertical reference line in graphs to show the max correction frequency. (The reason is to set it more accurately to a frequency where the measurement curve is very close to the target curve.)
A more complex request is for even more flexibility in adjusting target curves. This could be done by allowing drawing (ala Dirac) or by allowing the user to specify a few parametric EQ points. (The reason is to reduce ARC's corrections in the midrange while not eliminating them entirely.)
