Well, I now have everything installed and am really loving it! My wife is happy with the aesthetic of the supercinema 3D array, too.
My new question has to do with the speaker calibration/adjustment. I have a Denon 2313 AVR powering the speakers. Everything was installed professionally. The installers didn't use Audyssey and calibrated the speakers manually. I saw him add decibels to the front L/R speakers (equally) and some to the ceiling surrounds (different amounts because of different ceiling heights). It sounds great but I want to make sure I have everything maximized and I read the owners manual of the 3D Array and it recommended not adjusting the front L/R levels.
We have a trapezoid-shaped great room with the 3d array under the TV located on the angled wall (ie, the viewing/listening area is not directly in front of the TV, slightly center-left) Additionally, our room has an angled ceiling, so the Inivisa 650's surround at Rear Right is 10 ft ht and the Rear Left is at 20 ft. Sub is in the back corner (crossover at 120Hz and set to LFE+main on the AVR).
When I started looking into the Denon AVR speaker calibration menus I see that I can register the different lengths that speakers are from the listening area, in addition to adding volumes to the individual speakers. So, what would you recommend, given the above information and the for the 3D Array to even and then adjust the speaker distances, instead? Does the odd-shaped room lend itself better Audyssey?
Thanks for your help with this.
