Thank you! My test curve looks something like this (just grabbed one off the web). I haven't really delved too deeply in a "good" house curve yet. I WILL be, though! 63 4.9 80 3.7 100 2.5 125 1.3 160 0.6 200 0.2 250 0 1000 -1 32000 -6

I try to put my targtet in the "middle" of the existing response to balance out how much boosting or cuting gets dine, but now I understand how that could cause the no-EQ situation I am experiencing. I'll experiment with moving that around, and see if I get any filters above 1.5KHz that way...

I hadn't even considered the software name vs what I was trying to do, lol! I will do some test adjustments in the areas you think may be causing what I'm hearing. I'm not looking top create a good graph, per se, but I know that measurements/graph can halp explain what I might be hearing (but...

I'll open with: Yes, I know that EQ'ing mains is a suboptimal way to improve things, but this is just an office system that I am tinkering with, and want to play/learn/enjoy. I'll also add that I did a solid search for this topic with multiple keywords, and didn't find any threads on it. If it's...

Well, I finally found the solution. After a ton of back-and-forth fiddling and adjustment, I figuired out that the AVR of course offers adjustment of all channel levels, but has a separate channel level adjustment in each mode called "Subwoofer". Here's the thing: In any movie modes, the...

I think that's the hurdle I have to overcome. My AVR seems to do global channel levels. So if I crank the subs for music, I have to reduce then back for movies. Unfortunately, Denon took a step backwards and made it so you have to go 3-5 layers deep in menus to do so.

Are you saying the sub may run 10dB hotter in movie/TV mode, even though when I run the level test, I set all channels to the same level (75dB)? I remember that being a thing with the way REW measures (still not exaclty sure what it meant), but I thought using the internal AVR test tones...

Thank you for doing such a deep dive on this! As I read it, that adjustment allows me to match my input gains per source so that the volume remains somewhat constant when switching between sources. ie.e so I don;t get blown out of the room if I switch from a "cold" (low-voltage line-level)...

I might be able to do that with some Y-splitters, but I thought that was supposed to happen when setting the speakers to LFE+MAIN mode. If it matters, I run the crossover a little high to get some more signal to the subs via the LFE out. (?) I have definitely noticed the variation of mixes...

MODS: I'm sure this has been covered, but my searches do not bring me to a thread that I can refer to. If there is a definitive one that covers this question, please close this post and I'll head there! My system consists of a Denon AVR-X4000 feeding a MINIDSP into a 2-channel amp. The amp...

I tried convolution before when playing with Equalizer APO (and I think JRiver has it, too). I'll take a look into how it works with this little DSP unit. My schedule only lets me play around once ever month to month-and-a-half. Will post here if it works. Thanks!

Do you think that will help with the "megaphone honk" I hear? I'm using a DSPB-KE. I'm still learning, but I don't think I can export anyhthing useful from REW to plug in (like I can with my MINDSPs), but I can manually enter a seemingly unlimited number of parametric bands (Freq, Q...

The setup is off-centre on a long wall of a rectangular room. The right speaker is about 22" from the side wall and 6" from the wall behind it. The left speaker is about 42" from the side wall and 6" from the wall behind it. I ran a test on them in the center of my basement (one at a time) after...

I THINK this is the file you are looking for? I simply saved all measurements with the name Linaeum.
