Somebody slap Sonnie!


brucek, if you saw my house curve article, it has a response graph of our former residence showing I had a total 16 dB boost between the sub level and mains. However, my listening area was very large, 6200 cubic ft. I’m guessing your listening room is pretty small.

Seems like a lot, but it sounds great.

Hopefully you’ve tried my recommendation of using a music CD with bass lines running from very high to very low notes, to make sure response actually sounds as smooth as it looks?

I don't think I would get away with this if I crossed at 80Hz, but at 60Hz I feel it's not out of line.

I don’t think it would matter. Either way you’d end up with the same house curve.

It's certainly better than before, but I admit it has some up and down undulation that I could work on for a few hours getting rid of, but I'd never hear the difference.

You’re right. I think people obsess way too much getting a “picture-perfect” curve. I’d be really surprised if you could hear a difference between what you have now and a perfect curve.

Regards,
Wayne
