If I change the size setting of some speakers for example change the front height from dolby enabled to sm top height, Will it affect Dirac calibration? Do I need to run the whole DIRAC measurements again?

Do I need to run the whole DIRAC measurements again? You should run Dirac again. There could be a big difference in the EQ between a high mounted direct firing speaker and an upward firing indirect firing speaker. They should still work but the frequency balance, distance setting and level will likely be off. |

I agree with geebo on this. But I feel there's some other info needed about the speakers involved. If you truly do have "Dolby Enabled Speakers" that are designed to be mounted on top of floor speakers and aimed at the ceiling to reflect sound back down to the listener, then there is only one setting and calibration that will work. But, if you have speakers mounted on the upper wall or on the ceiling and want to "call" them either Front Height or Top Front, then that is different. That would just be a different naming convention. Also, when you use the term "size", do you mean set to Small or Large? |

After some research I found that I should use sm top front/rear for my 4 ceiling speakers. It is in the size configurations. There are several options for ceiling speakers, dolby enabled is one of them |

However, if you decide to later load that Dirac measurement set into the Dirac program to make changes you will likely get an error about the current speaker configuration not being the same as in the measurement. |
