I appreciate all the input and suggestions. While I understand there is only so much that can be done (and only so much my wife will let me do) in an effort to at least to intergrate the sub freq's as best as possible I think the SMS-1 will function. From my reading of the SMS-1 manual and the Outlaw guide on line it allows a number of presets correct? Can't I take measurements for the prime listening position in HT mode, make the adjustments, and have that as a present. Then chose another location as a listening position, for 2.1 channel audio for example, then take those measurements, and store that as a preset? The prime listening position is the couch which is where I am when watching the T.V., but I'm not in that position when I'm listening to music, I'm almost always doing something else, cooking, paying bills, bringing work home from the office, etc. So I'm not sitting on the couch. I don't mean to suggest that would make the system perfect, there's no way to create anechoic listening room in my home, but wouldn't it help? (Ok, I'm really thinking about getting the SMS-1, I'm trying to justify my expense)
