I have a good or maybe stupid question LOL. What is the point or running the auto EQ if afterwards I just go in and change all the crossovers to 80hz, fix distances with a measuring tape and set levels to match with an SPL app on my phone? Is there more to the auto EQ that is happening behind...

Hi all, very new here, but this seems the place where I can find an answer. I currently use a lyngdorf tdai2170 and bluesound node 2i, but I have a wish to get more power and less boxes. Therefore, I am looking at the NAD M33 and the Lyngdorf TDAI3400. has anyone compared the 2 side by side...

As we all know, until last year Dirac Live was limited to few very expensive processors or relatively cumbersome and limited use solutions like miniDSP. This year several processors and AVR ranging from $3K to $10K were released with Dirac Live by several brands. Although these are not cheap...

We have a Triad 24x24 (17 output zones) matrix feeding Triad amps. Some of the zones (Gym w/ subwoofer, Bath, Shower, etc.) need more than I'm able to do w/ REW and the 5 band parametric that Triad provides. Ideally I'd like a good room correction app. Interestingly, Triad are the US...

My Marantz 6013 has a “Pure” button that cycles between Auto, Direct, and Pure Direct. I’m having issues getting a clear answer on these and other sound modes such as the “Movie” options. My main question is: When is Audyssey on? I’ve read that it is only ON when you select Auto through the...

Selling a MiniDSP DDRC-24 with Dirac and a remote, along with a calibrated UMIK-1 microphone. These are in like-new condition, as I have only used them for a couple of days. I bought them to run as a crossover so I could add a subwoofer to my active speakers. I've since decided to go another...

Hello, I just wonder how much difference Dirac Live room correction makes when it comes to audio quality for 2-channel stereo sound? Let's say we have these two alternatives: 1. Accuphase E-480. High-end, 2-channel integrated stereo amplifier. Without room correction. ~€8.000. 2. Arcam AVR20...

[b]On the hunt for a new receiver (5.2.2,

In what was meant to be a CES 2018 announcement but turned into a sneak preview, Dirac Research has announced that it will introduce several major updates to its Dirac Live room correction system. According to Dirac Research, a new room correction algorithm and a simplified setup procedure...

Kraine has posted his review of the DLA-X5900 (DLA-RS440) here. Some quotes: "Lcos technology generally gives a very uniform image. The X5900 is no exception to the rule, no appearance of bright corners as it could produce in the past or hot spot." "Ultra HD support was already at a very...

Dirac Live is one of the most sophisticated room correction solutions available, but using it can be complicated for typical consumer. At CEDIA 2017, Dirac Research plans to address that issue by releasing Mobile Dirac Live, and easy-to-use implementation that relies on an app that's compatible...

NAD electronics has a 45 year history of building exceptional amplifiers. Today, the company announced a new partnership with Dirac Research to equip select AVRs and pre/pros in NAD's Masters and Custom Install lines with Dirac Live room correction. Combining the engineering talents of the two...

If you crave hands-on control of your Audyssey MultEQ room correction calibrations, and own a compatible Denon or Marantz AV receiver, you are in luck. Today, Denon and Marantz launched the MultEQ Editor app — for select recent AVRs — that lets users tweak, refine, and otherwise customize the...

Paul Hales, founder of Pro Audio Technology, talks about room correction—or as he prefers to call it, room compensation. Topics include some of his fundamental principles of room EQ, sound directivity from various objects such as violins and speakers, how microphones do not capture sound in the...

Q: Should I use an AVR or separate components? Here's my current setup: Anthem MRX 520 AVR (100 W/ch) Vandersteen 2Ce Signature speakers SVS SB12-Plus subwoofer The AVR replaced a McCormack DNA-0.5 amp (100 W/ch) that was paired with a Promitheus Audio TVC preamp. I purchased the AVR...

The nifty new two-channel ELAC Element EA101EQ-G integrated amp ($700) that was first shown at CEDIA 2016 is now available to purchase. This BASH-amp powered, 80 watts per channel integrated comes loaded with digital inputs that include USB, dual optical plus one coaxial SPDIF connection, and...

Two representatives from Datasat Digital, Executive VP Robert McKinley and Field Service Engineer Mike Skrzat, talk about the history of the company, its expansion from commercial cinema into the residential market with high-end audio processors, the decision to use Dirac Live room tuning, the...

I am sorry if this question has been asked and answered but... I have a Yamaha CX-A5000 preamp and a Velodyne dd-12 sub. I don't think that my specific components matter other than to say that both have "room correction" software on-board. How should I proceed to set up my speaker system? Do I...
