You need firmware version 1.04 or higher to fix the Reon issue. Although the firmware update enables Reon adjustments, it can only be done thru the menu system on the pre/pro and not via the on-screen menu system (cumbersome when finetuning video...would like to use the remote).
I have to admit, I was also very impressed with the Audyssey in the Onkyo 885... just setup the mic and let the system do the work. If you don't like the results... run it again. A whole lot easier than a Radio Shack meter and tape measure. I too hope the Outlaw's opt to incorporate this technology in their new pre/pro.
