I just completed my Cobalt S set of loudspeakers with a JM LAB Cobalt SW 27A subwoofer (secondhand) and had the help of an experienced friend to calibrate it.
I have an RSX 1056 and when he saw the OSD menu, he told me that I was using an old firmware and that updating it will help to make a better bass management.
I checked the firmare version and is "V 1.1.4 - 040217", that of course is a pretty old version, but I've been reading what's new with the actual versions up to the 1.2.5 and I don't find a word related to bass management.
Any of you can tell me if updating the firmware will help anything to better calibrate the loudspeakers?
Another question:
I find nosense the setup he made me: He selected all 5 loudspeakers large with sw yes in the speaker setup, but in the advanced speaker setup selected small for all the four different surround modes (Dolby, DTS, Stereo/MPEG and music) and the crossover frequencies 80Hz for the fronts, 100 for the central and 125 for the rears.
The case is that I prefer now the sound of the all analogue outputs of the multi input or the stereo bypass mode (without any bass management) from my rdv1060 and rsx-1056 and I think the system can be better calibrated using a different setup.
Any help where I should start? My loudspeakers are Focal JM Lab Cobalt 816S for fronts, CC800S central and SR800S for surrounds, plus the SW27A from the older Cobalt series (without the "S").
I will appreciate all your inputs.
Best regards
