Awesome thanks man, that pretty much answers it. I figured as much, just from what I've read on it thus far, just making double sure before I spend the money. I thought about the WXC + external amp, but really I'm just trying to keep this as simple as possible and don't need to drive a heavy...

Thanks highfigh - no, I'm definitely NOT trying to use the WXA as any part of my main surround system. My main surround system is fine, I mean to regain the use of my rear atmos speakers in that system by moving the external zone duty away from the rear presence connection to something that can...

Greetings all! I've come out of "forum retirement" to try and solve a little dilemma of mine that's come up here recently and hoping to gain some insight. Since my last post, I've moved into a new house, gained a couple additional subwoofers, beefed up my front sound stage with some tower...

Oh but I have rediscovered a love for video games so the Xbox has still been getting a workout too! Just in the past few weeks I have played and beat all 5 main Halo games, COD Black Ops I through III, COD Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare, and am currently playing GTA V. Yeah I like the...

Yeah, I finally just went and bought the Samsung UBD-K8500 and haven't had an issue with surround formats since. Microsoft was late to the party on this one, but good to hear the Xbox is finally getting what it needed in the first place. So guess I now have two capable 4k players that can pass...

Usually around -13 to -15db. Rarely have a need to crank it any louder than this. It's pretty loud at that level but not any louder than I've normally watched movies.

Yeah I know better than to hold my breath for Microsoft lol

I got the Xbox One S to serve as my combo gaming console and 4k player as I had done the same for regular blu ray with a PS3. But I found the Xbox's audio processing left a lot to be desired (for example could not bitstream even the higher quality surround formats (Dolby True HD, DTS-HD MA...

Oh and it copies the sub EQ as well. Which is where I'm seeing the boost above my crossover frequency but nothing below.

Correct (Your last statement). YPAO generates three settings after running: flat, natural and Front. Flat is just what it implies, where YPAO tries to achieve a flat response in room by adjusting speaker settings. Natural is similar to flat except it tapers off the high frequency trims a bit...

- Very true, good point. I think that's the big difference right now between the above discussion of music and the way in which we acquire that and movies; music tends to end up stored locally either on hard drives or physical media (bracketing out Pandora, Spotify, etc.) whereas movies, if...

I remember having similar discussions with people on CD's back when digital downloading first started emerging. At the time the quality of downloaded music was vastly inferior to CD and I made the bold claim that CD's would never go away as they'll remain the superior format. But then the game...

The concept of circular time seems to address the big question of infinity and what that actually means. I'm not a religious person by any means but for example referencing the Christian view that we will either spend eternity in hell or eternity in heaven; both of those ideas kind of freak me...

I had my TV running on antenna for awhile after dropping Frontier (they are just awful). Quality was quite good when it actually worked but reception was very spotty and some channels just ended up a frozen mess of pixelation. Plus aside from news, the gf and I follow some good TV shows that...

No I haven't emailed him yet but I can see if he has any suggestions too.

I may contact Yamaha on this bc it does seem odd. It boosted a higher frequency above my crossover but didn't do anything where it actually matters. It set trims in every band for all other speakers.

Yup, that's why it appears YPAO did nothing but set distance and level.

I just found this one the web so it is NOT a screenshot of my actual curve, but this is what the screen looks like to give you a better idea.

Not sure I understand the question but I'll explain what I see and you can infer the answer from it I suppose. So, I'm looking at the PEQ curves when I go into the YPAO manual settings menu. It shows all the curves and EQ corrections applied for each channel individually. There is one for the...

Yep... I've beat that horse dead on other threads about my preference of MCACC over all these others lol. It always dialed in my sub very well. Could be the reason I'm having issues now.
