I kindly ask members to share their knowledge and experiences with manual room EQ.
I'm in no way expert with this, here's how I do it..
I design my filters with rePhase based on measurements done with REW with calibrated mic.
In the 20Hz-600Hz region I make RTA measurements at the area around my head at LP (app 40cm left and right, 20cm front and back and 20cm up and down).
When doing corrections in 20Hz-300Hz I don't mind using high Q filters (up to 30) and I correct up to +/-12dB.
In 300-600Hz region I'm using Qs up to 5 and I correct up to +/-5dB.
In the 600-20kHz region I make corrections based on sine sweep measurements taken app 1m from the speaker.
I'm using Q up to 2 and I correct up to +/-2dB.
Finally I enter crossover data and correct minimum phase filters that they are as close to 0 as possible.
My filters have 65536 taps and are made for 96khz sampling rate, they run with BruteFIR convolver on Volumio.
Any comments and guidelines from you experts are wellcomed as are any comments and experiences from those of you who did it and I thank you in advance for them!
