    I would start by running Audyssey, and see what it sounds like. It does a pretty good job of setting things up for you, and you can fine tune it from there if you aren't happy with the results. I have an 806 and let me tell you from experience, you will not be dissapointed. IMHO, for what the 806 does, it is hard to beat at the price it is going for these days.

    +1 what wutadum said. The auto calibration gives you a great starting point that you can fine tune and tweak from. Make sure there are no background noises when running the auto setup.
