Dirac ART Stereo issues on Denon & Marantz Devices

[Derboy]

Ive fixed it.

I’ve been at it all night. Tried changing every variable in Dirac before deciding to scrap everything and start again. Adjusted speaker toe-in, re-levelled my subs so that they were only running a few db hotter than the mains and ran a new less focused mic sweep. I previously had a null at 120hz that was quite deep and I’m wondering if ART was reacting to that when BC wasn’t.

In any case the bass phenomenon in Stereo is gone. Perhaps other modes were masking it.

BUT - I’m using wider mic sweep. I’ll try going back to a more focused single seat one and see what the outcome is then.

My 4800h in pre pro mode sounds great on stereo, no issues, best bass ever in my room. 5.4.2 setup

Is the sound mode set to multichannel?
If the sound mode is set to Multi Channel Stereo, Denon/Marantz apply specific bass management. This means that BC and ART will not work.

The AVR applies the levels, crossovers, and delay time calculated by Dirac Live for the playback.

No. Just normal stereo.

Dirac have taken ages to come back and starting harping on about multi-channel stereo. I’ve reminded them that’s not what I was talking about and will now need to wait another 8 weeks for their next reply.
