Processor question

For speaker’s calibration,
Audio Control Maestro X9  has Dirac Live  
McIntosh MX 123  has Audyssey MultEQ® XT32

I have read that Dirac is hard to beat.

i have a mcintosh mx132 and mcintosh mc602 as a stereo setup! i have it mated to 4 bose 901 seies 2 speakers. when i watch a movie and turn up the volume it sounds great to me!!!

I think folks like me look  to help with the situations greatest opportunity. Our experience immediately identifies the pitfalls of stereo audio in a home theater situation. So we try and be helpful. If separate systems cannot be done, then I can’t help with the question.

ghdprentice.... I asked for input on two processors, not on whether I should have separate rooms for stereo and home theater. My experience immediately identifies the pitfalls of answering a question that was not asked. Thank you for trying to be helpful though. I do appreciate it.

If you choose McIntosh MX 123  processor,
maybe you should also choose ´´ lively speakers ´´ like Monitor Audio 
Silver serie.
As @auxinput mentionned ,´´ it might be a just a little bit warmer sounding  ´´ .
The speakers selection may be important
