I noticed something with the auto setup that I was wondering if someone could explain what was going on and if it could be Pythagore's problem.

Before running the auto setup I first turned my sub amp volume control from about the 1:00 pos. to about 9:00 per another thread in this forum. I then ran the setup and got that problem people see about the front and rears being swapped. I then shut off my sub and re-ran the setup. I turned on the sub just as the sub test was starting. Everything seemed to setup correctly this time. Note: The sub was assigned a correction of -1dB.

So I put in a movie and it is like there is no bass at all. Then I remember I turned the volume down on my sub. I go and turn it up to were it was set, and I have bass again. This gets me thinking that the auto setup did not work very well. I mean if the auto setup set the correction for the sub at -1dB with the volume level turned down, then why do I need to turn the volume level back up on my sub?
Interesting Clo2016, before running the auto setup I put the Lowpass filter on the sub to max (120Hz),after the auto setup my sub was calibrated to -1dB.

I left the calibrated value as is and changed the level on the sub, The level on the sub is adjusted to +3 (Assuming the starting point is 0).

My other concern is the volume level. I need to put the volume level to -10dB in order to have my usual listening dB, which doesn't leave me much if I want to crank the volume up when I have friends over or if I want to listen to concert level. (I do have space and no neighbor to bother, so I usually listen to music at moderate level). I don't care much about movies; any $300-$500 will do a decent job when feeding it a DD signal.

Today, the only day off I have and I call the customer support to find out that they work only until noon today. I think I'm done, I will just go to the dealer where I bought my amps tomorrow morning and pick up the Aragon Stage One.

If this unit sonic performance was as you guys keep pointing out, I could have turn a blind eye on the fact that I don't like the way it fits in my Home theater room decor. But, It failed to deliver to my expectation. At this point I'll take the $350 lost and send it back.

Thank you, for being very patient with me. I apologize if I came a bit strong on my first post.
