[QUOTE="The Camry, post: 8376738, member: 657974"] I dont believe so. Center stage is a mix between time alignment and EQ. What i did to get a center stage was make a test tone for each of the 16 bands. Then play test tones one at at a time and use the seperate L/R control to make each tone sound like its coming from the middle(or all around you). For example if you played a 1.25khz tone and it sounded like it was coming from the right speaker way more than the left. Then turn down the R a few notches till it feels like its centered and not right-centric(thats totally a word right?) note of caution. Its very easy to blow tweeters with test tones at even moderately high volume. Keep your volume low when you do this. The last 2-3 tones. pretty much 10-20khz. prob wont be all the audible to you. none the less THEY ARE BEING PLAYED. dont turn up your volume to hear them....Ive blown a tweeter doing this. Do all this while time alignment is off. Then use time alignment to try to get a center stage. this should get you pretty **** close to what you want. Then when your actually eqing the system as whole...like say cutting 3khz down a few notches. If your 3 khz is at L(0) R(-2). When you turn down 3 khz say 1 notch. Youll get L(-1) R(-3). Thats what you want. You balanced your speakers to be center and then your playing with freq to make them sound the way you like. [/QUOTE]
