Me too. Tried the 6db and that was way too much, then tried 4db which is better but still makes everything a bit too ‘full’. I could maybe live with 4db as some things sound quite good but music was a bit much. Back to default curve for me too.
This is why having multiple Dirac slots is great, I find the standard curve is great for music and a Harman +6dB has its's place for bass light content and a Harman +4 for movies.

I understand checking the speaker levels when using the Arcam's test tone is pre-dirac and not really representative of what I'm hearing, is that correct ?
If so I believe there's a way to check levels using REW and my umik mic, can anyone guide me through that process please?
Fire up REW, load in the UMIK-1 calibration file and use the SPL meter option, try pressing the logger button. Hardly a step by step guide I know, let us know if you get stuck.

My SR250 also allows Dirac on DAB but like Rambles, I don't use it & there's no aerial connected. Random guess but could it be you're tuned to a station broadcasting in mono?
Sorted! I use a separate radio rooftop ariel and after unplugging it and then plugging it back in I now have Dirac on DAB. The ariel has a screw thread connection into the Arcam which must have worked loose. My grateful thanks to you and Rambles.
