Drewan77, I would like to thank you !
I have been playing with my DEQX Express II for a while and I thought I knew most of the nuts and bolts, but in your post above on subwoofer time alignment, you offered a major league trick I didn't know and even ever think of: measuring the actual delay between mains and subwoofers at the listening chair : really smart !
So far, I have only used the DEQX utility to calulate the required delay based on the distance between the subs and the mains, which provided what I thought, a good result. When I modified those values with the actual measured values using your process, wow, much better, without any doubt! The result is a convincing demonstration of the benefits of a well "time aligned" speaker system and while I will not describe those benefits because you all know them (!), I can't resist to say that the improved "soundstage"/"imaging" was what striked me the most !
So again, thanks Andrew for sharing your knowledge with us and if Alan (Langford) is reading this... Alan, this is something that should be added in the DEQX user manual !
Regards,
Denis
