Advanced loudspeaker and room correction using REW and RePhase

[esl 63]

Hi!

I found this tutorial on how to use REW and RePhase to do both EQ and Phase correction

Hands down the most interesting and new way I have ever seen so far. Maybe not for beginners... but if you follow the steps maybe you can make it too.
I will try...

Thanks, very helpful. The electronic version of the Double Bass Array is cool.

If you do not have enough taps use Biq,uads!
Looks so easy for some people... 🙂

Did you give it a try? Before and after difference?

@esl 63 - What was the final outcome?

Will buy MiniDSP Flex Eight. I played around with MiniDSP 4x2 but sound quality was not really that good.

Before an active loudspeaker and room adjustment, I recommend, based on some arguments:

Speakers have an image size. Different speakers have different image sizes.
The majority of stereo signals are found on both channels, i.e. "mono".
If speakers are placed too far apart, the sound image is torn apart.
I recommend placing your speakers about 50 cm (center-center) apart and listening for a while. Then at some point place the speakers 60 cm apart. Then at some point 70 cm. And so on, until the sound image torn apart... Don't forget to move speakers back until they play together again now;-)
With compact speakers, this distance is far less than one meter, with really large floorstanding speakers very rarely more than 1.5 meters.
Angulation: often so that the outer side walls of the boxes are visible.
Distance to the rear wall: when bass and fundamental engage.

... otherwise even the most diligent DSP can't save anything;-)
