Hmm, okay, this may be a bit complicated, but if you look through this thread (which I started, BTW! :-) ) you'll see some of us have posted the frequency reponse curves of our own measurements and resulting correction curves.
All of the WAV files created by Inguz and DRC can be viewed in an appropriate program. I use Room EQ Wizard (REQW) which is free and available from hometheatershack.com. If you look in your \Program Files\Inguzaudio\Tools directory (or if not this one, whichever one you used to create the filters) you'll find the files that were created. The Impulse_ResponseMeasured file is pretty self explanatory, but it is the only one that needs to be converted before it can be viewed in REQW. That's becuase it's a 32 bit float format, and REQW is limited to 16 bit files or less. I use Goldwave to save this file off as a 16 bit stereo PCM file (under a new name, of course). Now, even if you want to ignore this one, the other important files, the ones with the TestConvolution in their filenames, are already 16 bit files and can be opened directly in REQW. These will give you an idea of what the associated correction curve will make your system sound like. When I asked what filter you are using, that is which one did you select from the SB display under EQ > Room Correction? Let's say it was "normal". If so then normal_TestConvolution.wav will represent what your system will sound like when you're using the normal.wav filter. The reason why I asked to see the curve for your selected filter is that - even though Chinanico and I have some concerns about the accuracy of the TestConvolution files - it still may be good enough to give us a picture of what might be coming out of your system (look at post #36 in this thread). If you're using a filter that looks like it produces a dead flat output, or maybe a bit of rolloff at either extreme or a suckout in the middle - it may explain why you think some songs sound dull. Of course there are other factors that can come into the mix, but I find I'm learning a lot by trying to understand what I'm seeing and connecting it to what I'm hearing. If you want to take the plunge into "curve-trace-itis" say the word and I can walk you through using REQW, although there's a ton of info on hometheatershack that will do a great job also. -edited for spelling corrections -- tonyptony ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tonyptony's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3397 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=35615 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
