Hello all,
I understand that in-room speaker frequency response should have a downward slope.
But I think I have also read that if listening nearer field a slightly less sloped/flatter response may be more desirable (compared to listening mid/far field).
So my question is, if I'm listening <6ft should I still be aiming for a downward slope of 1db per octave or so, or would something flatter likely be a more preferable target?
What if I'm even closer, let's say listening 3ft/1m for arguments sake?
I realise there's an element of subjectivity as far as preference and things like room furnishings playing a role.
Just looking for some clarity on where I should be aiming as a starting point.
