Room Measurement Tutorial for Dummies Part 2

[dorirod]

Hey, thanks! Your opinions really helped me a lot.
Today, I didn't dwell on whether the two curves were aligned. I tried REW's EQ, but unfortunately, the effect wasn't very noticeable.I think I may have been too conservative when setting the EQ in REW, which is why there wasn't much difference(the pinkish one is after EQ, and the reddish one is the original).
Thanks again for your advice.

Are you sure the EQ took effect? Maybe stating the obvious, but REW just gives you the filters, you have to apply them somewhere (not sure what you're using for that in your chain). Try making a really noticeable change, say -10dB at 1kHz, or a low pass filter that kills everything past 1kHz and see if you notice it.

Oh, sorry, I just realized today that there was a problem with the output settings on my REW, which allowed me to bypass the EQ output settings in Equalizer APO.These are the results I measured after resetting the EQ and adding a smile curve (my friend strongly recommended this to me).

REW is an excellent measurement tool! It can also offer good correction results but the learning curve for FR modification is very steep and not something that can be mastered in a few days.
I would highly suggest finding a way to introduce Audyssey or Dirac room correction into the playback chain to smooth the below 250hz curve.
The most basic approach is to use one of these semi-automated programs for the curve correction and then follow using REW to measure the
results.

I checked, and currently I can't afford the Audyssey or Dirac hardware or software. In fact, their prices exceed the price of my audio system, ha ha ha ha. But thank you very much for your advice. I will consider it when my wallet is a little fuller in the future.

That document (IMO) will be more valuable that yet another dac.
