Hi I did search for an answer before posting but could not see anything on this (with the search terms I used, at least). I am in the process of having an extension and remodel done. I want to run some AWG 12 speaker cable in the ceiling while it’s still open. The electricians have already...

When I listen to music through my RME ADI devices, I notice a lot of music appears to have low frequencies pumping up and down, almost independent of the other frequencies, as per the image below. I am guessing this is something to do with the way music gets recorded? I’ve seen it across a...
