| 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... | |
