    Does WiiM PEQ use RBJ / REW standard for Q?

    Hi, Does anyone know whether the WiiM PEQ implementation follows the RBJ (Robert Bristow-Johnson) / REW "Generic" standard for calculating Q? If not, what standard or maths does it use instead? I'm trying to ensure a 1:1 match for filters generated in REW. Thanks

    Old school stereo system tonal improvements without EQ or DSP

    An option to attempt when someone does not have an EQ or DSP in his (usually classic stereo) system and the placement options of the loudspeakers are limited: 1. Do separate left and right moving microphone method measurements around the desired listening position. 2. View those with some...

    First time with rew and eq - how'd I go?

    Measurements were taken using umik-1, listening distance is approx 2.5m, speakers are Ascilab C6B. Measurement procedure was as follows: 1. Measure L and R in 6 positions forming a grid in and around my seating position (about 40cm x 15cm rectangle). 2. Take the average of L and R separately. 3...

    Poor man’s ARC or Dirac for WiiM products: 80% of the results for €0

    Hi everyone, I’ve owned the WiiM Ultra for about a year now, and it's a fantastic piece of kit. For the last 12 months, I used it purely as a digital source into my Anthem MRX540. However, I want to transition back to a dedicated 2-channel setup. As an experiment, I took the MRX out of my...

    Speaker tuning to room.

    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...

    Question About Best Practices For Setting Subwoofer Level In Dirac

    In a non bass controlled system where 2 subwoofers are simply daisy chained to 2 speakers and it is basically acting as a full range stereo system, when setting subwoofer levels with band limited pink noise, does Dirac best work if the subs and monitors are matched in db, or is it better to get...

    Hi This is my first post here. I have moved to a new rented room which I majorly use for my production and mixing work. I could easily sense that there are multiple issues with the room and want to take expert opinion here before I go ahead and do anything. I did the measurement using REW wizard...

    Does Dirac(or other software room correction) make acoustic treatments redundant?

    I’ve been using Dirac room correction and in my experience it can transform a mediocre room (let’s say 3-4/10 on a subjective imaginary scale) into something sounding like an 8/10. if Dirac can achieve this high level of sound quality (8/10) regardless of the room’s starting point, does that...

    A new EQ tool for sound correction based on equal-loudness contours

    I’d like to introduce a free tool I developed for more natural and musical sound correction of PC audio. It’s based on my own approach that incorporates equal-loudness contours, and it has the following key features: Blends a flat target response with curves derived from equal-loudness...

    Need a next level audio nerd to explain something

    I have asked several people this, and they either are not explaining it so I can understand, or they just don't know. Because when I probe further they do not reply. Please help. I was going to purchase EverSolo DMP-A10 (DAC/Sreamer) and use it strictly as DAC/Streamer and NOT a preamp...

    Expert advice needed on subwoofer delay and also connections

    I have decided to go with 2 subs that apparently have a fair bit of delay due to all of the processing they do. (KEF KC92). Someone recommended to use the miniDSP 2x4 HD, as it not only does room correction, but also has adjustments for speaker delay. However, the miniDSP 2x4 HD does not have...
