Now that I have my basic equipment and my new listening space set up it's time to start on room correction. Here's my current system -
Sources:
-Turntable through a phono preamp
-Television with audio out via HDMI or Optical (apps like Netflix)
-Streamer (currently HEOS built in the AVR but may swap to a Pi in the future)
- Marantz NR1509 AVR (HDMI pass through, HEOS, bass management)
- Ncore Hypex N252MP power amp
- Alexis Sound Rebecca front L/R speakers
- Eventually going to add a sub
- Eventually adding a center channel... I think?
I'm trying to figure out the best way to do room correction. Unfortunately my AVR only has the most basic Audyssey built in and it doesn't even support the phone app. Does this even do anything for a basic 2.0 system?
What other options do I have? Buying a better AVR seems like an option or maybe a Minidsp? But with a Minidsp what happens if I add a center channel? Can I use the AVRs built in room correction for surround sources and use a Minidsp for stereo sources? I'm not really committed to the AVR as I don't even have any HDMI sources at the moment. Maybe I'll attach a game system or computer in the future but I think those have digital ours I could use too.
