Video Diary: StormAudio ISR Fusion 20

I have the StormAudio ISR Fusion 20 in-house for the next several months. I am still in the process of getting it tweaked out. I'm taking the deep dive on this one. I'm spending some time with setup and calibration on my own, getting initial impressions on the user experience and sound quality, the ease of use and calibration, lots of thoughts. In May I have a pair of NextLevel Acoustics subs arriving, and once those are in-house and I've got them setup, I'll have Matt from StormAudio do a remote calibration on my system so I can get the full capability of the unit.

I'm doing kind of a regular video diary on my time with this unit, more random stream of consciousness, so you can all see the process as it goes along and how it's going. My first thought is that this is NOT your typical big box store AVR. The setup is not quite as straightforward, but it's also very powerful and flexible, and I'm getting things figured out. It's been a long while since I've used Dirac, so I'm also having to relearn that interface, which has changed quite dramatically.

The official review will come later, but this thread will become a playlist of my video diary over time, so make sure you follow along!
