![]() ![]() If I had to install 100T glasswool insulation panel for low-end frequency absorption, where should I put it first? Front wall, side wall or both? So that would entail that I should invest in some acoustic treatment even trying to fix my speaker response with EQ. The purple line in the REW data zip file is from the same closer-to-wall position as the green line EXCEPT the mic was positioned much closer to the front wall (60cm instead of 87cm) because I suspected that I would be able to mitigate some desk reflections by doing so.Ĥ) For the basic measurement procedure, I tried to position the mic to my ear height (approx 112cm) and maintain the same distance from both speakers.ĥ) I read somewhere about "fixing it right at the source" mentality regarding the music production and room acoustics. ![]() But isn't it a better option to choose the red line because it looks more linear than either the green or purple line?ģ) I forgot to mention this. The KH 750 DSP would be the natural choice, but it could likely be done less expensively.ġ) Why did you use Harman curve for the target line instead of a flat, linear line? I thought EQ-ing for music production/mixing requires matching the speakers' response to a flat line.Ģ) Why did you choose the closer-to-wall position over on-the-edge position? I know that you chose it because you said that it's easier to bring down peaks than to increase the dips caused by room modes and SBIR. Adding even a single sub where you could vary XO freq., phase, and further EQ would be very likely to smooth out the low frequencies (and extend them of course). I would even consider some constrained layer damping sheets (CLD) to the bottom of the deskĩ. I would probably couple the speaker to the stand with "Blutak" and maybe spikes to the desk (or look into the products designed for studios for this). I have never set-up a nearfield system, but if I did I would wonder about potential coupling to the desk and having it resonate, become another sound source. I would make sure the mic is at the height of my ears (maybe you are tall? maybe you set the mic up at tweeter height?)Ĩ. I suspect(?) a nearfield setup makes it less important, but you might try adding frequency dependent windows for considerationħ. A moving mic measurement around your ears/head might add nice information re. That perhaps suggests using your closer to the wall positions (look at approx. ![]() It is much easier to bring down peaks that fill in gaps from room modes or SBIR. I use Audirvana as my music player, would maybe use "Audio Hijack" to capture full-system sound/host AUsĤ. ![]() the boundary settings, EQ on the monitors (those highs have to come down, it must sound very bright now) I can just think of what I would use (Mac-based): Not knowing what you have, the software you use to play your music, whether you want to EQ other sources, budget, etc. To get the potential sound quality you are going to need EQ (via parametric EQ and perhaps shelving filters). I would enter my dimensions into this to look at it further/confirm: ģ. Many of the mostly narrow (and some broader) peaks and dips are likely SBIR. I played with your measurements and had some thoughts about them and what I might do:Ģ. I think you have the potential for really, really good sound. ![]()
