Duplicate room correction

My sub and my amp both offer room-correction functions. Is there any benefit to using both and, if so, in which order should they be run? In fact, should the first one even be enabled when I perform the second one's measurement procedure?

I can make an educated guess myself about how this should work, so I’m not inviting other random guesses. Is anybody aware of a more authoritative reference, maybe from a manufacturer or reputable analyst?

Thanks, Erik.  What you say makes sense.  In fact, I've been trying for some time to determine just which parameters the amp's embedded room-correction SW actually adjusts.

OP:  What amp do you have? An Anthem??

No, this isn’t in relation to my "critical" stereo system. I’m talking here about my home theater, which is built around a higher-end Marantz AVR that uses the Audessey room-correction technology. Not exactly Dirac or Anthem, but I’m still giving it a chance.

What I’d really like to find out is an authoritative listing of just which parameters any of these RC DSPs actually adjust. That would answer a lot of questions about how and when to use them to the greatest effect..
