room acocustics

Hi All, Seeking advice as I plan a new sub for my living room. Currently, I am using an SB Audience Bianco SW450 18". This is a pro PA type driver with high sensitivity ~99dB, it is housed in a 250L sealed box and it is driven by a Fosi Audio V3 Mono at 8ohm. I appreciate this is lower power...

Hi everybody, I'm into the project of extending the use of room correction DSP, that I've been using for years for home theater to stereo listening (Roon and maybe also CD). So I know how to use REW, not to its full extent, but I know how to take measures with the Umik-1 and have a basic...

Hi, I have a question on my mind and I'd like to know if my reasoning makes sense. I'm not an expert, so please bear with me. The question is, if a room has a dip in a specific frequency range, and the speaker we're going to put in that room has a peak in that same frequency range, is it...

After god knows how long I have been looking at room treatment options and am still stuck on where to even start. My rt60 graphs seem to be low in the higher frequencies with no room treatment but much higher under 400hz, would it be safe to assume I would need significant treatment to even make...

I have a living room 5.1 setup with large open spaces on both sides. I uploaded a photo of it. I think I read with enclosed rooms you want to have objects which will absorb the sound so the waves don’t bounce of the wall and muddy the sound. Does that mean open rooms like this one are good...

Hi, I was looking to buy a my first 2.1 system (+Wiim for EQ) but after researching for weeks, does it even make sense to buy speakers if you want a flat frequency response? Ignoring the question of what is a flat target curve, is it even possible to hit any curve below 500hz with the way room...

Hello all! Hope all is good. I have already posted a thread asking for help setting my listening room/closet before i got ny speakers. But when i got the speakers (Genelec 8361a) I experimented a little with placement of speakers and furniture and I think I did a pretty good job getting my room...

Hi all!, Like the title says, I need some help with placing acoustic panels in my room, I made some rough rendered images of my room and they should have all the information you need about measurements, any information about where to place panels is greatly appreciated. I'm not trying to make my...

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum but I've been reading it for couple days straight. I am planning on upgrading my audio setup but I am not sure it's worth it since, like with many of the folks here, my room is my limitation. My situation is following. I own: Exposure 3010s2 Integrated Amp...

Hi. I have seen many posts and articles where they show how to analyze and get flat response curves for speakers. However, none of them show how the frequency response of a well treated room looks like. Then I found this video: And from what I understand is that, flat frequency response studio...

Hello friends, First of all, this is my first post in this great community, so treat me with love. I have started, so to speak, in this world of looking for good sound, I have gotten a couple of equipment to get started, I have some JBL Stage A130, Ampli Fosi Audio BT20A Pro, an IFI Micro iDSD...

First Post on this website, hoping to get some feedback on this. I just bought a house and the middle room was the only room that made sense to turn into an office/studio. I currently have a pair of Yamaha HS-7's and was considering purchasing LP-6's or IN-5 since they claim to work well for...

Reference: I think this graph is a bit misleading / easy to misunderstand. At a glance it looks like the untrained listeners want +12db in the bass, but that's not really the case. The flat area at 1-10khz for the untrained listeners is actually at +2/+3dB, so the total rise is closer to...

Hello everyone, I'm reaching out to the collective expertise of this forum for advice on improving the acoustics of our studio. It's uniquely situated in the heart of Paris, nestled in the second basement of a historic building, and boasts a distinct pentagonal shape. Our budget for acoustic...

Hello everyone. I’m looking for some advice.. I’m a long time recording engineer and musician. I’ve owned a few sets of speakers but I’m coming from a set of jbl Lsr 4300 with the matching sub I’ve used for 11 years. I recently bought the Neumann Kh 150s and Kh 750. With the MA1 system. Because...

I just stumbled upon this guy today, although he's been around for a long time. This is his most recent vid. I know that he's selling a product, but he appears to understand the math and physics of room acoustics and how his products work within the numbers. I watched several of his vids in...

Hi, got some new speakers in and they came with optional port plugs. I did a very rudimentary experiment to see how they perform with and without the plugs. I plan on investing in REW/Umik in the future but for right now I used a free decibel reader on my IPhone and measured frequencies between...

I'm planning to build some bass traps. The rear wall will be treated with about 40cm of glass wool but I want something more attractive for the front wall. I really like the looks of triangular bass traps; they're not as visually intrusive as square bass traps to me. I do all my caculation...

Hello! We have a PC connected to the TV in the living room which we use for streaming and music listening. Using a combination of measurement mic, REW and EQ APO I was able to bring the room FR to the following level. What I don't know is whether this is good enough or not or should I continue...
