At this price point there's

At this price point there's really no reason Onkyo couldn't have included the 6 position Audyssey MultEQ calibration complete with subwoofer calibration. With Audyssey you really don't need THX. Audyssey does everything THX does better. I guess that's why Denon has better sound quality at almost any given price point than Onkyo.

The firmware update from 12/20/2011 fixed the sound problems

Kim,

I have spent a couple months trying to setup the channel levels for HT-S9400THX. Audyssey's 2EQ auto calibration did everything wrong: the calibration sequence for the right and left channels was incorrect; the speaker distances came out completely wrong after calibration. Even after changing the calibration sequence the system sounded very inaccurate.

The firmware update from 12/20/2011 has corrected Audyssey's 2EQ auto calibration problems except for the subwoofer calibration. The channel level for subwoofer has come out +7. I had to manually adjust the subwoofer down to -1.

Bottom line: The real problem with this system is not the speakers, but the incorrect calculations for Audyssey's 2EQ auto calibration.

Onkyo HT-S9400THX sounds 4.5 stars after firmware update.
