I've been on the edge of ordering a BFD for some time now. I've read a lot of the BFD guide and many threads over the past couple of weeks. I don't want to spend a bunch of unecessary money and I have way too many toys as it is now. As such, I've decided that I just want an 1124P and I'll do everything manually.
I downloaded 1/6 octive test tones from this site and basically took some readings from 10Hz to 100Hz and used the excel sheet to plot my readings:
I basically set the 80Hz tone to 80Hz on my old style RS meter (10+ years old now) and took the readings.
I'm VERY surprised at the plot. It's almost ridiculous! It certainly doesn't sound like this to me. Overall I'd say the midbass is on the weak side and lower bass is definately hot, but this is not what I expected at all.
I want to order the 1124P tomorrow and I plan to just figure it all out and get the sub balanced and play with some "house curves".
Any comments?
