Okay, wasted another hour running this MultiEQ XT setup once again.
Sounds just horrid! Harsh, bright, thin, no bass, sound! Flat sounds even worse. Bass was set at -12db again, just like it did on my AVR-2312ci. I did readjust the subwoofer to the same level compared to the mains, as my manual setup. The EQ settings were all messed up, taking away midrange vocals and jacking up treble. No way can I listen to this garbage, sounds terrible. Turned off Audyssey and now my natural sounding system is back. My Elac bookshelf speakers have a ton more bass when played by themselves fullrange over Audyssey with my SVS Subwoofer. Ridiculous how bad this Audyssey destroys the sound.
BTW, all 6 mic locations were further than the 20" recommended from the wall, and locations used are what Audyssey recommends within 2' of listening position. The last 2 positions were not used as they are behind the listening position and would not fit within the distance limits.
