Chris,

In the Calibration Menu (on the preamp) that does Pink Noise after it steps through each Pick Noise Level for each speaker, it does distance. After distance is has a series of Phase tests where it compares speakers against each other and you flip phase back and forth until it sounds "right".

It's fairly easy to tell what sounds "right".

The easiey is to set it to + then move your head side to side. The sound will wander as you move your head if it is not in phase. When in phase the sound will tend to stay put.

Not sure if 565 has the phase test built in. If not Avia and Video Essentials I believe had one.

On the 861 and some other preamps you can do it from PC config program as well.

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.
