    I'm new here! need some opinions with SUB placement.

    Yea bro! I got the avia calibration disc. But I hate how there is no test for DTS. Once its calibrated in Dolby digital is it pretty much the same for all sound fields? I noticed some DVDs have the THX optimizer. Is that BS tho? I mean the sound levels are sooo way off after i calibrated and...
