I am looking to upgrade receiver. First step to 4K.
I am looking at 2 receivers that are pretty much the same except one has multi eq and the other has multi eq xt. $350 vs. $520,
My understanding is room correction isn't great until you get into Dirac, Arc, and multi xt 32. Not spending that much.
Also may get a mini dsp for the subs (have 2) in the future.
Looking at the specs. xt takes 2 more measurements. xt also does more correction in the satellites but the same amount of correction in the subs as vanilla multieq.
I am way more concerned with the sub and room interactions. I have Polk Lsi and they look to measure pretty good according to Stereophile.

Thoughts?

What xt32 gives you is EQ for two subwoofers so you might not need to buy mini DSP for dual subwoofer EQ.
