I translated the page, and while there really isn't much detail, it ends with this:
Remained intact, however, the processors for processing data - perhaps this factor now appears to be the weakest link in the chain. We stay for you on this issue on the ball and waiting for an official opinion Onkyo.
Dawg, maybe my recent comment about processing power is in fact a big deal?
I didn't really think about this so much until some time ago M code was talking about the variety/combination of processing DSP chips in our different receivers.
Otherwise, Audyssey gives the exact same codes to every manufacturer for any given tech they have. The two main variations (or screw ups) that I see with the implementation of this identical code by manufacturers are the following:
1. Some companies like Onkyo set speakers to full-range if Audyssey measures the F3 to be below 80hz. Of course, this has been explained so many times just at this forum alone.
2. Some companies have either more (three) available target curves (NAD). Other companies will have just the "flat" and "Audyssey/House" (with HF roll off), but a company like Denon has historically been more flexible with allowing to choose either no matter what the listening mode. Onkyo is less flexible with choices, historically at least, and I particularly remember stereo disallowing the flat curve (which disappointed some people; first pointed out to me by nibhaz, I think he had an 876).
