Going forward I would advise you stick with the digital output - what DAC you use is not going to make any difference in the measured response (not unless there is something very, very wrong with it).Here is a comparison of your original set of measurements and these new ones:[ATTACH]40249[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]40250[/ATTACH]There are differences, but not dramatically so.What I would suggest is first putting your speakers in each of the front corners of the room. Then with the mic at sitting distance between them, take measurements of L then R from what you consider the closest reasonable listening position - step back 30cm and do it again, then 30cm back again etc. Try to find the place where the bass response is the most even. Make that your MLP.From there, place the mic at the MLP with furnishings in place as they will be going forward, including where you'd like your speakers - measure. Move the speakers a bit, measure etc. Do not move the mic at all during this process. This should help you to find the sweet spot.</blockquote>
