Ok like many people have said, clearly a well treated room will be better than an untreated one. I don't think that is the debate here, the debate is whether ARC can make a substantial difference to a room, enough to make it value for money.

For whatever reason many peolpe do not have the time, skill or potential to physically alter their rooms beyond what they have done already so leaving that aside it would be interesting to fully test ARC.

I entirely agree with you Ethan that your waterfall graphs do not show that audussey has made a particular difference to decay times in your test room.

However ARC is apparently an evolution of this technology and as you know they believe their software can have an effect on time based problems in a room.

Are you not interested in testing ARC for yourself rather then simply comapring it to the Audussey technology?

It would seem that many people are hearing a substantial improvemnet in their rooms after using arc.

Do you know anyone with an ARC system you could test?
