TOPIC:

So I have the following calibration tools at my disposal but unsure of the order of operations.

Yamaha Avantage YPOA, MiniDSP DDRC-88, MiniDSP 2x4HD, Inuke Amps, 6 channel amp.

I am running 5.4.4 with 2 active channels on front sound stage, 2 rear surronds, 4 subs, and 4 overheads.
I want DDRC to cover the 3 fronts plus subs and feed the amps and then let the Yammy power just the heights?

Here's my plan of attack but I wanted to see if I got it right.

Step 1.
Sweep current system for baseline.

Step 2.
Remove all existing YPOA / inuke / miniDSP calibration.

Step 3.
Sweep subs at multiple locations and use MSO to integrate up to 4 subs using the DSP 2x4 or inukes DSP.
If I use the inukes DSP It would free up the 2x4 HD to run the active channels?

Step 4.
Setup active cross overs on DDRC88 for from sound stage.
L/R/C SS -- 5.1 --> to DDRC88

Step 5.
DIRAC 88 Calibration for 5.1 (Left Woofer, Left Horn, Center, Right Woofer Right Horn, Left Surround, Right Surround, Sub system on 2x4)

Step 6.
Run YPOA calibration for the 4 atmos channels?
