After I ran my calibration, I looked at my waterfall chart and it looked like this.
42193

So I was playing around with the EQ and I got this.

42194

Is the second an improvement?

Thank you. Any other thoughts on how I can improve? Please take a look at my settings as well.

Probably not. I suggest wading though this article for a better understanding on how to read waterfall graphs.

I was trying to make the decay disappear haha. I already know I’m doing it wrong. I will stick with the first calibration. A little advice?

Reading it. Thanks. I think I already got to the part where decreasing the spl will reduce decay but that is not how you should do it part.
