Re: Some questions before I purchase ...


Hi all,
Thanks for the advice.
I agree on the number of filters used being overkill. If we consider that my first equalised plot was actually using only 4 filters then I should get a smoother response with only a couple of additional filters added.
The other question I am unsure of is what is considered good, as in +/- 3dB, 6dB or even something like +/-2dB.
I think I should redo this and concentrate on getting a smoothed, let’s say 1/3 octave response, instead of worrying about very specific frequencies where the problem is in a very small bandwidth.
One thing I can mention is that the overall affect of the equalisation is that I now got more “discernable” bass, which is probably correct, as the bass level was previously set including peaks, i.e. still leaving all the dips.
I will play around this weekend using less narrow band filters and see what I can achieve, will post the separated plots afterwards.
