  1. SPL Meters | Mic's | Calibration | Sound Cards
    I hope that I am not posting this in the wrong place. My apologies if I do. I am trying to figure out where the flat line comes from starting around 12kHz, as it seems to be only happening with my speakers. I am not sure if this is the mic, as it produces different results per different...

    I have a Classe calibration mic and a focusrite 2i2 interface (2 inputs, one L and one R out). There is a left out going to one speaker and a R out looping back to input 2. The mic is on input 1. I calibrated the soundcard. I check the levels for the sweep and get -14db. I do the sweep and have...

Also connected to the Denon AVR is an Apple Tv, and Blu Ray Player. No issues with Main Zone set up. ZONE 2: This is where the issue is: Connected to...

    This might be a pretty ignorant question although I cannot find out the reason why it is wrong so I need some help. I have an awkward living room. In order for the LCR to be on the same horizontal plane I have to move all 3 up towards the ceiling maybe 12 -13" down from it. On image 1 and 2 you...

    Right now I feel certifiably insane. Anyone remember the first time they bought black paint and started painting the room Black?! This just seems wrong for some reason. All my life I have painted rooms white, cream, almond, ... and tried my best to make them look super nice like a model home...

    So, I'm trying to take some simple RTA measurements using a Dayton Umm6, their provided calibration file, and uncorrelated (stereo) pink noise. My measurements are coming up with more slant than my ears hear. Comparing it to my housecurve you'd think it was super bass heavy (+30db above vocals)...

    I just calibrated my sound card, but the curve does look as like one in the REW help. Is there some thing wrong with my card or am I missing a step?

    Just started with REW yesterday! First attempts at measurement seem to indicate something badly wrong with my setup, but I'm flummoxed. My Setup: MacBook Pro (OS 10.9.5) HDMI out to my receiver, testing one channel at a time as per these instructions USB UMIK-1 Sweep 0Hz to...
  11. Subwoofer Amps | High Pass Filters
    Well I was all happy cause I got a INUKE 3000, but when it arrived I see that it don't have the DSP, guess I should have paid more attention ( I thought they all had DSP ) any way , should I try to return this and get one with DSP , or use this one ?
  12. Sealed Subwoofer Build Projects
    Hi I have 4x 15" JBL GTO1514 drivers and an inuke3000dsp. I'm building sealed subwoofers because I don't have any room for ported designs. I've designed 2 cabinets that can (potentially) stack on top of each other (if needed). Each cabinet has 2x drivers with a volume of about 160L (5.5 cubic...

    So I am getting frustrated with REW and I'm sure it's an easy fix for someone who has gone thru this before. Here is my setup and signal flow: UMIK Mic->MacBook Pro->HDMI Out (Soundflower)->Front HDMI Input of Oppo 103d->RX-A3040->Martin Logan 40s, 50XT, FX, Motion 2s, SVS PB2000. I have read...

    Hi, I’ve a Audio Research DS-pre and is experiencing some strange happening that need help to find out (or narrow down) exactly what is wrong with my unit. My stereo is intergraded into my Home Theater setup (ie L/R pre-out from Onkyo AVR 3008). I’ve experienced some problem with the ARC...

    Sorry if this is the wrong forum for this post but I'm hoping people more experienced in reading REW would be more likely to see this post than in the main Speaker forum. Mods move if needed please. I've measured my MartinLogan Motif and personally I feel like there's something off about the...
  16. SPL Meters | Mic's | Calibration | Sound Cards
    I've been trying to calibrate my sound card with REW (have tried both on Mac and Windows) and I'm pretty sure I'm following the instructions correctly. At the end of each attempt, I get a message saying the variations between 20hz and 20000hz are 85dB (best result) to 130dB (worst result) and I...

    I moved and can't get sound when watching digital channels at the new place. I connected my TV to my home theater according to the manuals but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Please help. Here's my set up: Panasonic TC-P50U2 TV Panasonic SC-BT230 HT (home theater) Details: -HDMI cable...

    Is there anything wrong with putting tower speakers on the TV stands? my TV is actually hung on the wall, speakers are mythos one towers. Thinking about getting a 75" media console and placing the towers on top of the console. Cosmetically I think it might look ok, maybe even better than on the...

    Hey guys, First time playing around with REW on my computer setup. Consists of a set of Usher S520's, an SVS SB1000, and a Cambridge Azur 740A. Noticed that the upper end of my frequency response starts dipping quite rapidly at around 8kHz. Is there a chance that my tweeters could be damaged?
