Small update. Added my hacky old car amp+sub setup. Also turned the speakers vertical and boosted the mid frequencies on the speaker EQ to deal with a mid dip. I Think I can't really ask for more in terms of a balanced response now. Going to work on making the front wall bass traps more...

Yea, I usually leave the room when measuring. Put a towel on the left absorber. Seems to fix it.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Yeah I noticed the 4ms spike. The R 400-800hz is an anomaly, it doesn't always show up. The 4 ms spike I'll have to check though. 4ms spike seems to be first side reflection on left side. The fabric is pretty thick on the absorber, I think I'll have to get...

I did yeah. The midrange is a lot more clear now and image is properly centered, which I think is what cleared things up the most. Low mids were just a muddy mess before. Also moving the desk back eliminated a lot of reflections. Getting better and better. :D

Yeah that helped. I moved them further out towards the side walls and moved the mix pos back a bit too. So much more even across the channels now, and 130hz peak more or less eliminated.

Yeah, thanks, appreciate all the help and guidance. It's been very enlightening. Going to figure out the front wall first I think, the center is panned a bit to the left I'm noticing. Not sure if it's the traps or the window, or maybe just a level thing. Will have to experiment. :)

Thanks, editing the wav did the trick! I mean it's never been this good... and I was even moved to tears for a moment yesterday. The bass response is the most impressive I think, evening it out made a massive difference, even without a sub. Can't even imagine what a sub is gonna do. :D

The delay is caused when using a convolution engine. Just using a Windows computer, Equalizer APO as Convolution. In the DAW (Reaper) I tried both Melda MConvolutionEZ and EasyConvolver from GenuineSoundware. All causing delay. Actually not that big of an issue in the DAW, although...

Thanks! Is there a way around the delay created on playback btw? I tried decreasing the interface buffer but it's not really viable when mixing. :p

Ended up finding a good youtube guide for using just REW. Now my speakers are actually starting to match my corrected headphones too, this is great.

Ah, yeah I watched that, I think it was a part of one of the articles you linked earlier. I discarded it though because acourate was pretty expensive. I see now though that there's a tutorial for Audiolense too, so definitely going to give it a go.

Is there any pros to using convolution over just regular eq?

Yeah, thanks a bunch @ddude003 ! Finally getting some results. EQ already sounding much better than before. :greengrin: Harman curve isn't all that far off, just need to add a sub now.

Moved it down a bit from the ceiling, 10-12 cm. 1/3 of ceiling is now treated. Starting to sound pretty good! Attached R,L and R+L measurments.

Ok, so I measured and held a big absorber in the ceiling and now it made a big difference actually. Shaved another 2 db or so off. Going to mount it and make some proper measurements. I also tested to turn the speakers vertically, it made a big dip in the 1-2khz range, but maybe there's other...
