Got more time to play with the system, let me quickly run down the set up for posterities sake, flac files from my laptop, through a squeeze box out via digital to the deqx, then to an adcom gfa 7707 and out via some cardas wires to the monitors and some 10g copper wire to the subs.
So I gave the room correction a go, some blue tape on a chair leg propped up on my sofa held the mic in the exact spot where my head goes. Hooked up the computer and figured out what was what. Still need to finish reading the 200 page manual for the deqx, but I was able to edit an existing profile.
Took the measurement and to my surprise the right channel midrange was not working. Tracked down the problem to my amp, which was the only thing that got messed up with shipping, lucky for me it had an extra channel to hook to, so I moved the mid to the other channel, ran the test again and it worked perfect.
The room bloom was there right on the graph, 18db gain at 60hz. The only surprise was some spikes in the 300-500hz range everything else was as expected. Switch on auto correct, which btw only touches the bottom 550hz, sat down and was blown away. My impression with just auto correct is that it is very similar to head phones. It removes the sound of the room, but only for one location at a time. If I sit up, the bass falls flat, walk around the room and you wonder what is wrong with the speakers, sit down in the sweet spot and you are wearing head phones again. I think if I take some more measurements and average the corrections I should be able to get a compromise that can be lived with.
So after a few tracks of that setup I removed the room correction, eq, and everything to just see how the speakers sound by themselves. This was operating like a passive crossover setup. The sound is amazing, voicing is very similar to the galena's which I still think is one of those speakers that can get you 95% of the way to perfection. The bottom octave is there down to 17hz in room at -10 db and I could correct that to about 10hz with the deqx if I really wanted to get silly.
So for now I'm just listening to the speakers getting to know them and letting them learn my tunes, once I've got an idea of what I want to change I'll fiddle with that. You should except another update when I get through the manual and try out more of the extreme measures the deqx allows for.
