https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650152717-avalon-acoustics-eidolon-speakers-maple-finish-4w-crates/I have a few LP's that sound better through my Eidolons with the two crawl test positioned Velodyne Digital Drive 12 Plus turned off. Those same recordings in multiple digital formats sound better with the subs on.
The Eidolons are situated 7' apart with 3/8" toe in. Positioned in a quasi golden thirds relation. Their rear edge is 6.5' from the front wall. One small reflective diffuser on the side walls mitigate the first side wall reflection.
Subwoofers ride on decoupled thick foam padded dollies in asymmetrical sidewall positions.Using a tv or a laptop the Plus Auto EQ is the only one I'm familiar with that simultaneously plays the Sweep Tones CD through the main speakers and the subs as it preforms the subwoofers calibration with the room as well as the main speakers.
The twenty minute Auto EQ gets close enough that most reviewers simply let it go at that. Five to ten minutes of using Velodyne's Frequency Response and Parameters Screen which allows a drag and drop of up to five of the fourteen parameters at a time to your personal preference. Then saved to six memory presets. In all the process is quite quick and simple to use as you watch the graph and listen to the adjustments being made.
