It can, if you buy a small black box that adds up both L and R channels of your stereo system. You can calibrate two subwoofers fully independently You can also calibrate thus the same subwoofer with two fully independent systemsGreat review Pity it can't be used in a dual av/stereo setup.
Just to clarify, I don't own an AS-EQ1, a demo unit was loaned to me for a week, so I had limited time for testing etc.
With a review like that, SVS should give you an AS-EQ1
I'm sure you have just pushed a few people off the fence and onto the phone to Subsonic Sounds...

Adam do you know why your unit came with leads but others who bought them had none and had to buy their own?
It doesn't come with an RCA-RCA interconnect if that is what you mean? The picture shows the optional interconnect which I think I stated as optional in the review.
Adam
I totally agree......if you could hear the difference between the sms1 and this unit i wonder if there could be room for improvement switching between the svs as-eq1 and the anti-mode 8033?
And if little difference is noted then theres know dought that the anti-mode wins hands down for its simplicity of use and price position..........(IF!!)
Thus completely blowing his impartiality
I don't think reviews would be very reliable if they were done with the idea a free one was in the offing. SVS are far more professional than that.

I think he may be referring to the "what's in the box" pic you posted as it features an SVS RCA cable ??
Actually seeing that I feel cheated that I didn't get one, if that's supposedly 'what's in the box' (only joking I have too many spare cables)
I must have misread that part. nice review by the way
On what basis are you comparing the Anti-mode to an SMS-1? As someone who has spent (as recently as yesterday) three hours measuring the two back to back, I'd be interested to know.The anti-mode may be comparable to an SMS-1 but I seriously doubt it being in the same league as an EQ1
I'm sure Adam would agree, but an unbiased review can only result from the object of the review having to return to its original owner.With a review like that, SVS should give you an AS-EQ1 :eek

I re-read your post and still feel you were making assumptions about the Anti-mode's capability, or at least placing the Anti-mode in the wrong camp a might hastily, shall we say.I wasn't comparing on any basis if you read what I said properly I simply mentioned the anti-mode doesn't use Audyssey (which is the secret ingredient and gives the WOW factor) so maybe (again I said maybe) ? the anti-mode would be more comparable to the SMS-1 in the fact that neither use Audyssey ?? although saying that, the anti-mode must win hands down for ease of use doesn't it ? and I haven't even tried one to know that
I'll have to review the two units officially and separately, but once that's done I don't see why a few back-to-back comparison waterfalls can't make their way into a thread or two!Edit: would be interesting to hear your opinions on all of the EQ products seeing as you are getting an EQ1 to test, maybe an EQ shootout could be on the cards ?? assuming you have time of course
There's no two ways about it, the Anti-mode is a very much simpler device and without pre-empting any results, it shouldn't trouble the AS-EQ1, but it's certainly going to be interesting to compare the two back to back. Imagine the fuss if the two sounded and measured the same.......

If one does not have LF problems, then perhaps a simpler and less expensive solution will suffice. But if one really has, as someone just remarked, a bass-sucking sod, then Audyssey's technology is to current room correction technology as 3D chess is to checkers.Especially as the antimode is about 1/3 of the price and much easier to use

Sorry for my first post sounding like I am a shill for Audyssey or SVS, but I am a firm believer in Audyssey and their tech. The results in my theater are testament to that.
