    90Hz dip is your front wall reflection and is called SBIR. Your speakers are 94cm from your front wall.

      Speaker Boundary Interference. You know that is the most amazing comment I have seen to date. You are right. I have moved the speakers around. Front of my SVS SB16 ultra is 76.2 cm away from the front wall. Guess what the problem frequency that I tried to adjust using the parametric eq on the SVS app is 77 hz. Amazing. Thank you for the comment

    Not sure if you are aware but the dip you see in the curve is caused by the midrange compensation feature, it does this on purpose to smooth out average speakers response if yours are decent quality and accurate, id disable this in the editor app.

      Thanks for the comment. I am aware that the dip is caused by the Midrange compensation. I used to keep it off when I had electrostatic speakers from MartinLogan. I have turned it off on my B&W 702 S2 and B&W HTM71 S3. Previously, I had it turned on for the B&W CT7.4 LCRS. Great advise. Really appreciate it.

    If you dont want to use the Dynamic EQ, you can use the Curve Editor to give your speakers that natural bass boost they should have from the room gain. Use a stylus and starting at about 150hz or 200hz, slowly add SPL to the bass creating a gradual upward slope going down to 80hz, then flatten out from 80hz down to the subwoofers natural roll off and let it drop down. The amount of boost depends on how much bass impact you want. It can be anywhere from +3db to +10db (for bass heads) and with this, you dont need to worry about the surround boost DEQ adds to the rear channels.

      ​@@magnoliamo Hey Mo. Did you ever try this? How did it work for you?

    Is your receiver running Multeq xt or xt32? I'm trying to figure out whether its worth it to get the app if I have only multeq xt (not xt32) and whether making changes to the curve below 200hz would even do anything with multeq xt since it doesn't have much filtering in the bass region compared to xt32.

      Hi. I have the Xt32. Even without the curve editor the app has other features like saving and uploading multiple curves, choosing the high freq roll off, etc. there are other benefits

      Its definitely worth it to get the mobile app. It gives you a lot more manual control over the calibration.
      In regards to the premium MultEQ-X, it will improve your sound rather dramatically (according to reports) and gives you a whole lot more control over the calibration including an adjustable PEQ for every channel.

    Try measuring the final two measurements exactly where your ears would be. Maybe 4 to 6 inches to the left and right of the 1st measurement at the MLP

      Thanks. I’m going to try this technique. What would be the benefit of this as opposed to using the audyssey recommended 7th and 8th positions which are behind the MLP.

    • @FURognar
      @FURognar Před 8 dny +1

      I dont want to say and bias your expectations. I'm curious as to what your assessment would be. There IS a specific benefit but as I said, I dont want to bias your expectation.

      @@FURognar Makes sense to me. I’ll let you know my thoughts on this technique. Thank you.
