I agree, looks sweet! One question pops into my mind when I see real people's setups: does anyone actually have their speakers as far out into the room as audio reviewers claim they do?? My speakers (front) have to be less than a foot away from the wall behind, and one is kind of in a corner...

No Dirac Live = no sale, for me at least. It's too bad, but I understand that if this included Dirac it would be functionally almost identical to the M10. Does BluOS mean it is automatically Roon-ready?

From what you say, Eric, it sounds like you will be happy sticking with XT32. If it ain't broke, ...

As this post goes to show, it all depends on how you use Audyssey and how happy you are with the results. If you have Dynamic EQ switched on at all times and don't like the sound without it, then probably neither ARC nor Dirac will make you happy (or at least, it would take you a while to...

The show is based on a series of hard-sci-fi books by James S.A. Corey. (That is a pseudonym for two co-authors whose name I don't recall right now). I have enjoyed the books a lot, and also the show (up to season 3 at least), although I have to say: if you can understand what is going on...

Ethan, very interesting test and article, thanks for posting it here. It does not surprise me that in a room with already-extensive treatment, Dirac can do more harm than good at places other than the sweet spot. I use Dirac myself, in a small and non-ideal room with the speakers too close to...

AustinJerry is getting closer to what would be required, but the protocol is still not quite what one would want (IMHO). Neither Dirac nor Audyssey tell users to use just one calibration location, so if you do that you are just comparing wrongly-implemented Dirac vs. wrongly-implemented...
