Hello All,
I’ve read on here a few times that “DSP can’t do anything about reflections” - I guess YPAO + R.S.C. may be the exception?
I’m mostly curious about how it works. My room is very small, in an old New England house. 725 cubic feet with an irregularly arranged listening position where the right side of each speaker is mostly blocked off (a bookshelf on the right, and kind of trapped behind a flatscreen on the left)
As you can see in the screen shot that the left speaker is about one foot farther away from the listening position than the right, but YPAO wants +.5db from the right speaker. I’m guessing that this is because I’m getting sound off the left side wall that is arriving early.
RSC really centers the dialogue when watching television, and focuses the stereo image, both with and without EQ in the frequency domain being enabled when listening to music. Without YPAO enabled, the room is a mess for TV sound, a real mess with music, particularly as the volume goes up. I like it.
Again - I’m curious if anyone knows how it works. What is it doing to the audio with regards to reflections? Looking for an explanation in layman’s terms. I’m not a scientist- just an old dude with a bad room and a Yamaha. I don’t have measurements, and I’m not particularly interested in taking them and adding a computer to my setup. I’ve recently retired from a job running maintenance for a global infrastructure that consisted of 15 thousand workloads across 100+ virtual and physical environments- I want nothing to do with computers for awhile at least
Thanks
