I always liked audyssey with my older systems, but it changes my new RB61IIs sound so much (for stereo listening) that it's bugging me. Treble is boosted a lot (and I'm using the Reference curve), and the midrange sounds more aggressive. Soundstage is enormous and the sound is not bad at all, just a bit harsh, but I can post-tone control it back to a good level. Bass is awesome. I understand if Audyssey changes bass a lot, since my room probably wrecks the bass response (no bass traps or anything like that). But my fronts are positioned in such a way that there are almost no reflections, meaning the treble and midrange should be close to what Klipsch intended. That big of a change on the treble and mid is making me think that I'm not listening to my klipsch's, but to audyssey's own curve (my onkyo 5008 audyssey xt32 has no smartphone app to tweak the curves), which is primarily made with theaters and movie production rooms in mind, not music. As for dynamic EQ, it's indeed very nice, but the Reference Level Offset thing also makes me paranoid about having the right setting for every source material. I know, I probably have OCD.
