Oh for God's sake ! Do all your adjustments yourself and ditch the auto calibration. Set your left and right speakers to small. Set the sub crossover to 80 hz. Set your speaker and sub distances manually. Set your left and right speaker output levels to balance using an SPL meter at a volume that you would normally listen to music. The sub's output is another matter. Set that manually using your ears while playing music. Preferably something simple like a well recorded jazz CD. When the sub compliments the mains (Not dominates them) with music it is set up properly. Remember, the sub's placement is paramount as to how it will perform. Easy !
Not looking to pick a fight here, but using by REW as well as YPAO instead of this IMO a bit to simplified approach, most people can quite easily achieve far superior results.
Someone higher up in the thread complained that YPAO was useless, which in no way is, although the RX-A1050 did not have the most useful version. 2070, 3070, 2080, 3080 do.
Also, the distances set in the YPAO should NOT be changed to the actual physical distances as they are set by YPAO to align the phase between calibrated speakers as seen from the main listening position.
Furthermore, using the manual approach eliminates the use of the no less than brilliant RSC algorithm.
I know I'm replying to an old forum thread, but for reference should anyone else stumble upon it Audioholics have plenty of solid advice for setting up HT systems including how to use REW to dial in the subs. Elsewhere on the net plenty of examples can be found on how the RSC can do wonders with certain types of nulls otherwise impossible to combat and reference response curves can be achieved..
