i think i did it! I made a new measurement with Dirac but now with a tight pattern and changed the curve as you told me and now it sounds crazy good. Not only is the harshness almost gone (in some songs it's still there but not as harsh), the sound in general is much more linear and "right"...

Will try it tomorrow, thanks

I tried your green line and many variations of it. Even much steeper but nope, no good results. The orange line in my rew pic is your green line but like -5db steeper. It seems like dirac doesn't let it go that deep

You mean like this (attached with and without EQ)? How can i see it there? Hypex NC250 amp. 2x250 watt 4 Ohm how do i do that? did all the placements and room treatment i could now i have bought these expensive jbl and have to find a way to make it work with them i already bought miniDSP...

So i did another day of measuring and testing and still have the same problems. High freqs are too harsh. Dirac results are worse than REW EQ results with miniDSP PEQ afterwards. Purple is no EQ, orange is Dirac and turquoise is REW EQ + miniDSP PEQ. With REW EQ + PEQ i can enjoy my speakers...

and here is the problem i got in my room shown in REW wavelet. Too much energy in the high freqs no EQ: and after Dirac (not as much energy in the higher freqs but still): @UprightCitizen but doesn't these wavelets show that my problems is with my room acoustic response? I don't think the...

not sure which one you'd like to see so i made multiple snapshots. One measure is with 0deg UMIK1 and the other with 90deg UMIK1

heres the REW file, should be better as a picture, right? Dirac first try Yes, i know. I moved them before dirac or EQ

yes it was on the pic, i moved them more in the center after that. Also tried different toe in/out

thats a good idea! Thanks Should i stick to a "curve" or could i only go down with like 1khz - 1.5 khz, use it like a EQ ?

So I got the miniDSP Flex and did a lot of testing. First I tried the REW EQ and then the Dirac. The results are really nice, the bass is so much better now, but the highs are still harsh. I have to use -db in PEQ after REW EQ or Dirac to tame them. But after that the sound gets "muffled". I...

will do! I've just ordered the minidsp flex and see how it goes

thanks for this vid! I'm more confident now with these speakers :) I never tried going mid all up on the knobs, gonna try that tonight! I've got a wooden ceiling with 'open' beams that break the otherwise flat ceiling. Is this good or bad acoustically? Should I maybe try playing absorbers...

That was just a quick test with the basic EQ my marantz AVR has integrated. Now i want a more in depth and detailed solution. I think i'll go with the miniDSP Flex. So AVR - > Flex -> power amp -> JBL

yes i know, they sound very different for sure.

you mean the MKI from 2019? i got some pretty good results with just -2db 1k Hz -2db 2k Hz -4db 3k Hz -2db 4k Hz .. I just want now a more fine tuning way of doing it

Thta's the question! Before i spend money now on this Denon X3800H + Dirac Live license (which i can't refund or test?) would be there a better way? A dsp for example?

i will do that now! And hopefully adjust my ears to that. I just wanna know the best way to do the EQ :)

What i meant was, when i use my simple EQ from my marantz AVR and i -db some frequencies (1k, 2k, 5k etc.) the problem is gone but the sound becomes muffled. @Old_School_Brad i did all positions (which are possible in that limited space) and already have a thick carpet. Yesterday i've put...

Hey there, I have a sub-optimal living room and have bought some JBL L100 Classic MKII. I have already tested 3 speakers in this room and have the same problem with all of them. The upper mid to high frequencies sound harsh, tested with several AMPs. I think it's the room, I measured it and got...
