Dear all,
Last week I have created another topic about the null area right on my listening position and how to fix that.
As I also believe in science and measurements I ordered Umik-1, taken some measurements before investing (or may be not investing at all ) for DSP or even another sub.
Here is my first measurements.
Keep in mind that this is my first measurement with Umik-1 (with any mic actually) and just followed tutorial from a nice guy on YouTube
As it is recommended, I have taken several measurements from different listening positions and also some measurements without subwoofer
I have a pair of Monitor Audio Rx6 and a BK XLX200Mk2 subwoofer (I believe the rest shouldn't have an effect for that measurements.... oh may be cables... joking )
My sub is rolled off around 90 hz and has a 90 degree phase as of now... these are all subject to change ... and by the way, the mesh grills of the speakers and the sub was on ... I am hearing significant change when I put them away at high frequencies (but not the subject for now )
My ideal listening position with sub.
My ideal listening position without sub
Subwoofer alone
and also with sub and without
Question ...
Is the patient dead or can be survived with my a better sub with bit more features or bit better placement) as replacement .. or a DAP can help me a bit about anything ... or is it necessary (must may be ) to buy a second sub... ? Second sub is big deal.... not the financial part but the wife factor mostly... She hates even the one I have ... also leaving this as it is ..and setting up a close field listening with a pair of active monitors at my work place might be the another option .. What do you think ?
