My Pioneer VSX-534 has an automatic room tune feature (the first receiver I've owned with this).
It seems to me that, although the tuning would (most likely) improve accuracy (smoother frequency response), it also restricts the listening location to one small "sweet spot".
My Pioneer VSX-D209/Polk T15/PSW108 setup in my basement (I listen to everything w/DPL on) provides amazing imaging on some content without any room tuning (receiver doesn't offer it).
Opinions about auto room tuning?
