Room Measurements and Dip Switches

Hello Ilkka!

I was one of the lucky ones this year and the Genelec boys stopped by during the Genelec Kalibrointikiertue 2014
and measured my little home theatre. After an informative discussion I decided to move the speakers (8040a') around and see if I could improve on the big dip I had between 200-300 Hz. I lifted the center up so that all the speakers are now on the same height. All speakers are wallmounted so it took a while. After much experimenting and measuring this was the best I could do.

Now my real question is: Genelec recommended during the calibration that not to use the Bass tilt as it further increased to dip in the bass response. I have now moved the speakers up and the dip is a bit smaller than it used to be. Looking at the measurements of my speakers, which one of the settings are more neutral and why? I am needing some guidance as to what I should be looking at to get a more neutral response. For stereo I use the Fronts without any calibration. Audyssey XT32 does a pretty good job integrating the subwoofer and mains, it however boosts the dips so don't know if that's a good thing or not. Thank you for your time and assistance.
