It is correct if this is the distance from your main center listening position to each of those speakers.

It looks strange to me that the subwoofer seems so much closer than the other speakers, but of course it depends on the real distance of the subwoofer to your listening position. Is it really only about 1 meter from there (respective from where you placed your microphone when Audyssey did its measurement)?

Try to run Audissey once more. If you tried that already, move or turn the subwoofer slightly and try again.

If you use the MultEQ app you can also alter the subwoofer's distance to a proper value after Audyssey's run.

I think what Denon means is to keep the mic at least 50cm away from the wall. More shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not sure if the Audyssey routine with the X2400h is the same as with my x4500h, if it is it means that all of the 8 positions that the mic should be placed at during the measurements should have at least 50 cm distance from the wall.

Try subwoofer positions somewhere where you could actually leave it in the end.

Looks much more reasonable now. Does it also sound good to you?
