    Tuning B&K Setup for 305/307

    Just received my 305 and now in the process of tweaking my setup. I was hoping for some help, advice or general commentary on a few things I currently am trying to setup. For a better idea of my environment, I have B&W 804's with a B&W HTM2 for my mains and center. I also have a FS12 Velodyne sub. My setup is in a room of 25' by 17'.

    My Questions:

    -- What does anyone think of the EQ Loudness and EQ Theater listening functions? Any perceived enhancement?

    -- I have several Humps -- upwards and downwards -- in my room eq. Which should I tune? Above 100 htz or below.

    -- My response for Variable EQ is totally flat for both Bass and Treble. Is this normal and you just use on a trial type basis to tweak your bass and treble?

    -- The speaker placement function, any problems with it? I have a main that is 2 feet closer (left) and my rears are a little oddball due to room, etc. Just seems that the spatial effects are better when I do not use any of the distance / delay features.

    -- I shut off the cross over on the sub which was also variable and the B&K is controlling it. Considering my speakers, anyplace I can start at in terms of adjusting cross over for optimum sound from anyone else's experience or leave at 80?

    Any comments would be appreciated.
    Thank You.

    B&K 305 Bi-Amp ?
    by Dean Mar
    Have a B&K AVR305 that I use for 80% music and 20% movies. I have been very happy with the performance on movies, but feel that there is room for improvement on music. Thought about purchasing a separate 2 channel amp for my mains, but don't want to spend the extra money right now.

    SSP-800 Setup assistance
    by sikoniko
    It seems there are some people having issues with getting the SSP-800 setup. It seems to me that we should create a category so people can find information easily instead of letting it get burried with other conversations.
