Hi I am a complete beginner when it comes to REW I have been trying to learn about it over the last few months and still have a long way to go.
I recently rearranged my small HT room to allow for better speaker placement options, and I am looking for feedback and advice on how to use REW to determine if the speakers are in a good location and if my DIY broadband absorbers are helping or making it worse.
I have just placed 6 X broadband absobers in the room as well i have only mounted the front 2 at the first reflection location the other 4 are in temp locations till i can work out how to best place them (2 are on the rear wall at ear height or slightly above and the other 2 are leaning against the rear side wall.
Seeking advice on what are the best graphs to use and how to interpret to results, I have been using AI, youtube etc etc to help me along the way which is why the speakers are in the current location, I am now seeking advice on how to further improve things and what to look out for.
Any help and feedback on my Mdat files would be much appreciated
Mdat files attached
Room size
4.2m Wide
5.67m Long
2.7m Ceiling height
3.4m to MLP
MLP is 2 side by side recliners (rew measurements were taken at the mid point between the 2 recliners)
Front speakers are currently 1000mm off the front wall and 600mm off the side wall
Sub is 800mm off the front wall and 1200mm off the LHS side wall
