First calibration with 2 Pearless XXLS


Hello,

My new subs are now completed !

You can see the building thread HERE.

I am starting a new thread related to REW and BFD adjustements.

The first graph is without EQ and the second is with some filters. More to come until next monday !

I don't know, that first graph looks like it would benefit from a bit of sub positioning to the point where you don't need a BFD.

Re: First calibration with 2 Pearless XXLS



You might want to re-post your graph in our standard 45-105 dB window.

At the very least I would raise the target curve, or lower your level a bit, so that it tracks the area between 25-50 Hz. I’m guessing you have your response filtered to death, cutting everything down to the target. That plus the way it tracks the Target almost perfectly. Raising the target will help squelch that urge.

But on the other hand, I see that it got you some boost below 20 Hz...

Regards,
Wayne

Re: First calibration with 2 Pearless XXLS


Have to agree with brucek, except for the dip at 60Hz, that's a pretty good response without filters! Location, location, location,...first, then filters.
