Hello! I've been trying to get my system just right using REW with an UMIK-1. It's not an easy thing to do, so I'm hoping experienced people here could guide me a little bit . I feel like I've done quite a bit, but with lots to improve still.
While Audyssey already did a lot of work, Before this I had to use DEQ to enjoy most bass. Now I noticed Audyssey EQ ran bass 6dB too cold and I needed to do some PEQ in the SVS app. I slightly raised the 30Hz dip and lowered the 20Hz and the 42, 53 & 80Hz peaks.
Purple line is average pre-EQ, red is average post-EQ. then there's the subwoofer, green being post-eq, red being pre-eq. Getting a nice house-curve in there.
Surrounds have the same curve as the center.
Overall it looks like a lot of improvements are made. I'm not sure if that +4.5dB(+6-1.5) on 30Hz in the SVS app is a bit too much?
I do have a massive dip between 70 and 140Hz. The crossover is set to 90Hz on all speakers, and my surrounds already have a dip before that, but the center and fronts are fine. My subwoofer should handle 70-90Hz just fine, just like it does with my fronts/center. But those surrounds already dip at 80 or 70Hz.
Anyone knows what's up here? FL is highlighted next to all other speakers.
And at last there's this +6dB peak 1.1kHz on my FL. The FR doesn't suffer from this. Could that be fixed with a simple (room) adjustment? Audyssey doesn't EQ speakers seperately, its either both fronts or none.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Also, the room in question. Not sure if there are many changes that can be made.
