So I had my theater calibrated, the bad news is that I am going to need a new projector soon :) due to colors not adjusting well. All I can say is the lsim speakers rock now. I used Yamaha’s ypao setup and it said I had speakers out of phase, speakers distances were off as much as 3ft, boosted higher frequencies and so on. Much happier now. If anyone is looking for a professional contact Jeff at https://www.accucalav.com. He travels all over the US and has done over 2000 systems. Main things he said would help my room is to change the fabric on my acoustic panels as they are deflecting some higher frequencies and add a few more and paint my walls and ceiling darker. Too much light reflection.

  • Your room sounds like mine. I definitely want to paint the HT ceiling black. YPAO says my RTI12’s are reversed. Looks like there pointing the right way to me.
    Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

    He was correcting his spelling in the post before that - "they’re" not "there."

    Reversed? As in reversed polarity?

    "that" inferring that you assumed that YPAO thinks the speakers are facing the wall instead of being out of phase which is what it means by "reversed".

    YPAO see them as out of phase. Seems to be common with Yamaha YPAO.
