Hello. For context, I work as a full time video editor and often times I have to deal with a little sound mixing on my projects. These include voice EQ, sound effects and music. At this point I'm using my Macbook Pro speakers and Hyperx Cloud II to mix. Of course this might be the worst...

I am a PC gamer who sometimes watch video and listen to music. Not being any professional in audio, I only decide to put active 2.0 speakers by the side of my 27-inch monitor. (A triangle of about 1 meter) The audioengine HD4 I am currently using still has some hissing and port noise within 1...

Hey, I just tried to correct my LS50 using REW and my Behringer ECM-8000 to get a flatter response. I set the volume to roughly 75dB using the pink noise generator. I only corrected peaks which are mainly caused by room modes in my setup. I used the following settings for the filter...
