Thank you.I seriously would like to give a thumbs up to Mr Bliman for his restless quest on fine tuning its RME DAC and sharing about his journey. I follow the experience with great interest to replicate. I am setting up my check list. Until now:
Looking forward completing this list with further details on the eq settings. Mr Bliman, please keep on sharing your experience also on eq settings.
- Buy a Umik and long enough Cable (spend another 120 Eur - I hate it)
- get and get a very basic knowledge on a mesurement software like REW or Dirac (ok)
- Trick the family out the house (will try)
- Put all eq to 0 (easy)
- Make and interprete mesurements (probably not so easy)
- Check the polarity of the sub (should be ok)
- Match the sub and speakers volume (that one is a revelation for me!)
- Try to different angle the speakers and move the Sub around until better mesurements
- Try to eq to get rid of anomalies (biggest challenge)
- Invite Mr Bliman and Mr Vintage together to your home to finish the job (as someone has to know what he is doing)
But you are giving me to much honor. I know as much as you.
This place and people are some of the most knowledgeable people in regards to audio. And they have a ton of knowledge. Therefore I want to thank all the people here for the sharing of knowledge and being friendly.
Today was again a day of measuring and shuffling the speakers and it shows in the curves. And most important it shows in how good the sound is. It is incredible how these things change.
Maybe a tip that I can give you. Go to here (that's where I asked for help) https://forum.rme-audio.de/viewtopic.php?id=29041 and communicate there also.
Believe me that you will love that you spend 120 € on the Umik and cable in the future. It will be the best investment you will ever done in regards to audio.
Good luck
