I have been running sweeps using TruRta for the last few hours and trying to get my mains (LCR) flat. After some tweaking at the XO point (100hz) I have really got it flat with the exception of a null between 44hz and 56hz , about -6db.When I smooth out the response to 1/3rd oct it is ruler flat.
I started with the subwoofer.I ran sweeps and really only found one peak centered at 34hz and cut by -10db (not sure of the width on the cut).Once that was done and the response looked good I started on the center without the sub.I worked on the XO point.The center had a rise below the XO point that gave the sound a bit of a "chesty sound".I did all this with an Ashly analog PEQ.I ran one sweep with the subwoofer in, and the response was perfect.I then did the mains the same way.First without the sub to get an idea of the response at the XO point and adjusted for that.So now the mains are set along with the subwoofer.
What are your thoughts on the method of my work.I like the way it "Looks". I'll give it a whirl with some movies and music DVD's to see if I like the "Flat" sound.
Now the surrounds and I'm done......ya..done :B
