Often people are given the cheapest CPAP machines that won't auto-adjust themselves. Guess what, at least for Medicare it's all the same price so the cheaper the machine the more profit for the DME! The forums will guide you to how to get the best from your machine.
I fine tuned my CPAP based on what I learned and it really improved my AHI. You say "<10" but if you mean AHI that's not good enough. Even doctors want <5. Mine is <1.
