Hi all,

I have just spent quite a deal great deal of time using measurements to set up my subwoofer and integrate it with my speakers.

The final result feels a bit thin when I apply the room corrections that seemed to measure well but I’m not sure if it is because it is a difference in volume or not. To be honest, when I switch off the room correction and I hear the bigger and more powerful sound, I’m not sure though if it is his resonances that should not be there and a clouding the clarity.

I am attaching a link to my measurement file HERE as well as some screen grabs and would love input as to which you think measures the best.

Thanks so much,

Maybe too many filters with too high Q and boosts? That will make graphs look good, but will smear transients, leaving you with thin and weak bass, have you tried boosting subwoofer gain after equalizing? Can you share filters you used?

also all your graphs are nearly identical, is that equalized response or not?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
I have a two stage DSP filter process. A miniDSP into my sub with a 66hz and 40Hz filter and a crossover HPF at 60 Hz 48 db/oct. It doesn't affect my mains as I am trying to maintain their character.

The first measurement is that setup and the rest are adding filters I created in REW for the full spectrum and/or below 200 Hz and programmed into a WiiM pro and/or WiiM's own correction system as well as combining both as well
