SONY TA-N9000ES
What differences were you expecting? I doubt there would be any major ones as long as the amp is operating properly.Kal 
Spectrum analyzer?
I said "chancy" intentionally; it does not mean that they never work. Besides, flattening the bass response, by itself, is advantageous.Many people have had excellent results with the DEQ2496 using REW as the tool for setting up the filters. I do ... 
Spectrum analyzer?
"the spectrum analyzer is useless is you cannot alter the anomalies of your room. In other words, the analyzer will show you the peaks, nulls in your room but thats it."The RTA can only show you the frequency response in your room. It cannot ident... 
Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 6 RCA Living Stereo SACD
None of the Living Stereos are 5.1, in my experience. They are either 3.0/2.0 or just 2.0.Kal 
Spectrum analyzer?
There are many devices that attempt this with varying degrees of success. These include the usual suspects such as Audyssey, TacT, ARC and a slew of PEQs when coupled with RoomEQ Wizard. The one I like best is the Meridian MRC which measures the b... 
Spectrum analyzer?
IMHO, the most pernicious effect of the room acoustics is the extended decay at certain frequencies. These frequencies are not necessarily those that show up as instantaneous magnitude peaks nor, if they do, is simply reducing the magnitude going ...

I would be able to match the filter configuration to it and then check the results.Kal 
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2?
My review (September Stereophile) of the D2 includes comments about ARC. November issue will offer a head-to-head comparison of ARC and AudysseyPro. Of course, a new version of AudysseyPro, v3.0, has just been released and changes some of the bala... 
Spectrum analyzer?
I have no experience with the Behringer. Does it show you a time-decay response?Kal 
DENON AVP-A1HDCI vs. Anthem Statement D2?
Instead of Audyssey, the D2 has ARC-1 which is quite formidable.Kal 
Spectrum analyzer?
1/10 octave or better can be achieved by both TrueRTA and by REW.The reason that RTA is not useful is that it has little memory while the major room influence is in the delayed reflections and their interactions. For that, you need to see "waterfa... 
OPPO USB info
Hmmm. Looks to me that he answered your questions. (Oppo support is pretty good.) You might consult the AVSforum thread on the 980H for lots(!) more discussion.Kal 
Spectrum analyzer?
Depends on your needs. In general, RTA is not the best tool for speaker/room interactions. The starting place for RTA is TrueRTA.However, the best combination of capability and price is RoomEQ Wizard which is a freeware program. You will need a mi...

Marginal increase in power availability. How will you balance the two amps?Kal
