What corrections should I make to these frequency responses to be able to listen objectively better?
 
That's a big topic where brief questions and brief answers won't get you very far. Can you share a bit more of what you have in mind?
 
You don't seem to have attached anything. And you would need to give an idea of what your target is , not just the in room response

sorry, this is the starting curve
 
Looks pretty reasonable, assuming your measurement is sensible.

Knock down the 40Hz peak, 120Hz peak and 600Hz bump for a start.
After that, see if nudging the 4.5kHz bump down a little is helpful for you. You could also try bringing the 1.5kHz dip up, but be careful with that - check off-axis etc to make sure you're not going to end up with an acoustically-integrated response with a peak in it.


The first round of EQ (40Hz, 120Hz and 600Hz) will drastically affect the perceived tonality of the system. Take a while and re-acclimatise before going further. Give it a day or two. After that, if you want a more bass-heavy sound, use a low-shelving EQ to bring the LF response up in an even manner.

Once you've experienced flat and extended LF reproduction, everything else sounds broken in comparison.

Enjoy.

How do I remove spikes with an EQP?

by raising the frequencies between 2 and 16 khz, the sound becomes more detailed and spatial, I like it, but the voices become too shrill and I don't like this. How can I solve it?

Rather you tell us how you got on with flattening the peaks in the bass which was the answer to your first post. Nobody here can tell you how to eq to your preferences, only how to eq measured results to a certain target.

in the meantime i noticed what i wrote above and i ask you is there a way to set the equalizer to have a detailed and spatial sound without having shrill singers voices?

See @solderdude handy frequency guide. Play around with peaks and dips in the areas you want/ dont want but nobody can give you a guide to what YOU want to achieve in your room with your music into your ears. If your response is now measuring reasonably flat with a downward slope in room everything else is to personal taste. You are moving very much from objective to subjective improvements.

That curve is looking better.

Next step: reduce smoothing so we can see what's going on. I suspect that 4kHz bump is sharper in reality than it appears on that graph.
It would easily explain why some voices sound shrill.

What EQ did you apply between 2 and 16khz?
 
sorry but if I post the new curve here I'm going off topic, because the new settings and the new curve lead to subjective and not objective listening,

Time to close this thread, then.
 
Without "Spin" data I would not mess around with adjustments beyond 500 Hz as you don't really have any idea what you are measuring and how the speakers are going to react to an adjustments so you are more likely to mess things up than improve anything. What speakers are these? Spin data may be available here or elsewhere online.
