So when Amir and Erin share their speaker review measurements what smoothing would they use? Thanks.

I prefer using 1/48, removes the too dense tot be seen hairs, yet give me my detailed FR, this is with UMIK 1 and L+R at mlp, single measurement
the "psychoacoustic" is funny, because basically the devs admit it does not show what we hear when they actually don't recomend it to be used for corrections. if it would show what we hear you could correct to it
Of course, thanks.none.
the wild graphs we get at home are caused by the room (which the Kipple removes).
Is that so? Can you put a link which shows which "devs" said that and where?

I saw them recomend var several times. one example: https://www.avnirvana.com/threads/how-can-the-bass-from-50-hz-correct.8466/#post-64373
Using Var smoothing for EQ in LF region is indeed quite widely spread thing but that doesn't mean that Psy doesn't best represent what and how we hear.
correcting "what we hear" should be the only thing necessary. If you say you need var for bass, it means that psy is hiding something.
I didn't say you need Var to EQ bass and personally I don't use it. I said "using Var smoothing for EQ in LF region is indeed quite widely spread thing".
Acourate's "psy" is much more realistic https://www.audiovero.de/acourate-wiki/doku.php?id=en:wiki:funktionen:td-functions:psychoacoustics
using an envelope makes total sense since "we don't hear the dips" is generaly accepted. on the ther hand all the smoothing stuff eleminates peaks, which doesn't seam right.
I suggested an envelope graph option to REW devs, but they relied "it's proprietary to Acourate". how so? they didn't invent envelopes.
I am just explaining why I think the recomendation doesn't add up to what psy smoothing claims to be.
It still is a usefull smoothing, I just think it should be called differently
Btw, PSY in REW doesn't simply remove peaks as it applies more weighting to them before averaging, as explained in REW's help I quoted.
ACourate Psy is indeed very realistic. Maybe dr. Brueggemann (@UliBru) copyrighted it.
yes, on desktop, slightly behind monitor and back wardorbe at ~1m, it's basically a compupter 2.1 setup nowAre your speakers on a desk? looks like you got some comb filtering going on.
