Hi,

I recently got a Anthem AVM 70 and using with below GE speakers. For some reason the sound quality not good at all after the ARC. i am not sure what i doing wrong here. Please attached ARC file for your reference, Profile1 is generated from ARC.

My speakers:

GE Triton 2+ (Mains)
GE Supercenter X - Center
GE Invisa MPX - Surronds
GE Invisa 650 - ATMOS 4
Subs - SVS PB2000 prod -2

AMPS - Monolith 7 channel and Emotiva Gen3 7 channel

Appreciate your help

Hi pokmm, I'm sorry; I'm not sure why the ARC settings selected by your Anthem AVM 70 do not sound very good. If, you're able to manually setup a few parameters on your AVM70, there's a good chance, this will improve the sound quality of your system. (At least it's worth a try.) Specifically, I'd recommend the following crossover frequencies for the speakers in your system:

Mains - Triton 2+ - Full range (large front speakers) - connected with speaker wire only.
Center - SuperCenter X - small - 80hz crossover
Surrounds - Invisa MPX - small - 80hz crossover
Atmos speakers - Invisa 650s - small - 100hz crossover
Subs - SVS PB2000 - 70hz - 80hz crossover

I would also recommend setting the exact distance each speaker is away from your main listening position - and (ideally), I'd recommend using an SPL meter to adjust the volume or channel level of speaker - so they're all heard at the same level . I know these settings are not taking advantage of the ARC room correction system - but I would expect your system to sound quite pleasing. Happy Listening!

Hi,

Thanks for your response, i will try with your recommended setting, but i don't see option for full range/small in the cross over section in my avm 70, here is main current crossover setup

Mains - Triton 2+ - 80Hz
Center - SuperCenter X - 80hz crossover
Surrounds - Invisa MPX -80hz crossover
Atmos speakers - Invisa 650s -100hz crossover
Subs - SVS PB2000 - 120hz crossover

Not sure what i am missing here.

Thanks and Happy New Year!!
