Hello nickalpha!

Could you attach your .mdat file in order to pay a better look to your measurements? Also, could you tell us how did you do those measurements? Where were speakers and microphone located at?

EDIT: Sorry, I had missed your attachment.

Cheers,

Eric

Hi Kevin, 2654 I am also not sure why I have so much falloff after 6k, or if thats normal. seems not... My bet is that 6k issue is due to different distances from L and R to de mic. If you zoom in your lasts LR measurements impulse responses, you could see that there are two spikes, almost an inch a...

Thank you Starlight. Now I understand better why it is worth to run audio cables next to electrical ones. It's in order to avoid ground loops. My concern now is what about electromagnetic interference? Do balanced lines suffer them? Or is it just a concern for unbalanced lines? What about the sugges...

I think it's because 2" 703 mounted 1.5" off the wall has almost nothing to do with low frequency issues. You would need either so much thicker porous treatment, or tuned devices.

Best regards,

Eric

Hi Starlight,

Correct me if I'm wrong. Is it right that Jonh, in his designs, runs audio cable parallel to electrical cable, and as close as posible, avoiding interferences by twisting the electrical conductors?

Could you tell us more about electrical and audio cables runs?

Best regards,

Eric

Hi Steve! 2603 I have Focal Twin6’s and I really like them. I do not think they can be effectively soffit mounted. I was thinking of selling these and getting the Focal Solo6’s, which, I understand are very similar in their performance and can be soffit mounted. I like Focal monitors very much too, ...

Hi civvie,

I've been following your last posts, but I don't have the right answer for neither both questions: gap and hangers orientation.

So, I'm looking forward to see if anybody could give a good suggestion.

Best regards,

Eric

Happy anniversary to the forum!

Congrats Stuart! There is such great community here giving all their knowledgement and advices, and almost everything is proven to be truth!

I'm glad to be a part and to could learn so much in so little time from all you folks!

Cheers!

Hi Kevin, IMHO, you already have plenty of room for treatment. Front wall between soffits, back wall at mid point, and side walls behind listening position are bare walls yet. What I would do, but I didn't do ever, so I don't know if it would be the best way, is to take some measurements against tho...

Hi Kevin,

How is your back wall treatment?

Maybe you could make some measurements in all available locations for basstrap, in order to see where maximum pressure for these resonances is, and put in there some tuned traps.

Hi kwow, I'm not an expert, but looking at dimensions into amroc calculator, the best options seems to be 706 x 520 x 336 and 706 x 506 x 336 . I'm looking mainly at Bonello chart, which shows modes distribution, and best distribution is when it is even, and there are more modes than previous bands,...

2531 in your case you can’t go wrong with adding as much insulation as you can manage/afford. As it will be behind the rigid screens you should get the benefit in the bass end without sucking out high frequencies. I agree. Just be sure to let air flow through a path in order to avoid monitors run u...

Hi civvie, Your plan seems to be very good. Did it end sounding better being symmetric between side walls? From .mdat files, it looks better, but you being there, listening, have the final word. As speakers at corners, beside midrange dips, seems to be better for low end, but it's good if you prefer...

Hi Erie,

May you post yout .mdat file here in the forum? I wasn't able to find your last measurements in this thread. I just found the ones from the empty room.

Cheers,

Eric
