Hi all,
Recently got a batch of some acoustic panels (CSR Martini Absorb XHD 100mm) and put it all around my room. It definitely sounds better in terms of clarity which I'm happy with. I actually have 6 whole (2.4 x 1.2m) panels unopened, and am considering using them or selling them.
Here is my room, all the black stuff is the XHD:
The corners I just have single small panels, I know it probably isn't doing much:
The RT60 measurements have gone down are now around the 300-400ms range. Here is my frequency response:
This is before DIRAC, which I will be applying using my SHD Studio. I'll probably bump the subs a bit before DIRAC for a house curve but the above is set flat-ish.
What would be the best way to try get rid of the troughs at around 200 hz using my remaining XHD panels or is it not possible? Does it even matter when I will be correcting with DIRAC (although I've found it doesn't correct as much as I'd like - I'm still playing with it)? Also, would there be any benefit just double stacking my remaining panels so it is mostly 200mm thickness of XHD around the walls?
If it matters, equipment is:
- Minidsp SHD Studio
- Topping D90SE for the mains and E30 for the subs
- 2x Benchmark AHB2
- Revel F206 and 2x Rhythmik F12 subs
Many thanks
