Beautiful room and awesome gear.
Any chance we can see some pictures of the back of the room? Do you have a 5.2 HT setup via the Anthem?

Thanx!
Technically, it's 5.1 system since subwoofers are not stereo in surround mode.
Stereo system is 2.2 - subwoofers are stereo.

It's more aesthetics than acoustics
, but it's rounded and filled with mineral wool.

I've tried several different solutions including ARC and Dirac and I find them all "destructive" for Hi-Fi music. They all kill that ultimate quality in Hi-Fi - resolution, details, dynamics, transparency...
For surround, I use ARC and it's great.
Gorgeous setup.
I think the room correction results depend upon which software is being used. I always bypassed Audyssey eq32 on my Marantz 8802A before, but love the results from Trinnov Altitude for stereo. It also lets me integrate the subwoofers seamlessly below 40htz.
BTW, thanks for posting Harman Curve.

Great set up in a beautiful room! I also run a HT plus stereo set up like you do but at a much lower price point gear. I have never considered using a separate amp for center channel. Did you start without an external amp for center channel and then move on to external amp? Please write a bit about your experience on this. Would love to know.

Thanks, friend!
Parasound is a "leftover"
from the time prior the Devialet - it was used for front speakers. And now, since I already have it - it's doing great job for center channel. Probably it's an overkill
