I would agree that the RS Meter, even set to slow, makes proper interpretation hard with certain test discs. The most stable readings I have ever seen are with pure sine waves. Any tone that has a warble built in will be hard to correctly interpret with a RS meter. I also have had...

Ed/Jeremy, To start with, great work on this. I was back there with you in March when this all came to light, but had no way to test as thoroughly as you guys did. Glad to see that first off, I was not on crack, and more importantly, my room and gear are not telling lies! On a side note...

Any chance either of you guys (Jeremy or Ed) have VE? I have both, but do not have the test gear you guys have. I would think it would be a better comparo, since Avia does use redirected bass. Not that this should matter, but it is a difference. A straight shot out the .1 channel would be...

No way. Have you actually tried to run the tones in your room? And then, compare then to what you get from any other test disc? There may be room gain issues, but those are coupled with levels that are just plane too hot. They do not work in any normal room. Maybe outdoors, but not in a real...

Edward, Great analysis. I hate to say it, but while Joe's explanation of the phenomena (as published in WSR and his web site) does mention room issue and that DVE has wider bandwidth, he does not really explain WHY that would be an issue, and in fact, some of what he says still seems...

Secrets has a review up of DVE here http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volum...ls-3-2004.html But its not a review at all....its just a run down of the features and functions. Is it just me, or do others find this sort of thing extremely annoying. There have been legnthy threads here that...

Above is a quote from a Guy Kuo article that I got here http://www.keohi.com/keohihdtv/exper.../avia_a2z.html So, regardless of Ed's reasons, his method is right on the money. BGL

I am with Ed. I did a very, very quick test yesterday afternoon using my older Sony 650D (It has a display that shows when the .1 channel is active.) Doing my sub to center test, the LFE indicator did not come on. When I later ran the .1 channel sweep, it did. I suppose it is a good way...

Edward, I think we are singing from the same hymnal, but different songs. On my Avia, under the section on sub set-up and calibration, there are tones that simply alternate between the sub and a chosen main speaker (you can select any main that you wish). These are not sweeps, just...

Edward, can you expand on that a bit? When I use Avia for my sub calibration, I use the tones that alternate between the sub and one of the main channels (I use sub vs. center). So, I use the discrete channel balance tones to get the main channels matched, then I use the sub test tones...

In case anyone has not seen it, the issue with the sub channel calibration on DVE was mentioned in this link: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...=&pagenumber=1 In fact, there are some e-mails from Joe Kane in here as well. That said, I don't think anyone has tested quite to the...
