Title: I'm Confused - REW & Bad Mid-Range Driver in Strata Mini
Post by: soonermagic on 22 Feb 2017, 09:13 am

So I've had a pair of ebony Strata Minis for several years.  Decided to add an HTD Level III ebony center recently.  In the process of hooking that up I realized I cannot hear any output from the midrange driver on my right Mini ... ugh.

So I started researching the forums and came across some post about bad tweeters and midranges in the Minis.  At this point I'm worried about my tweeters too.  Decide to order a miniDSP UMIK-1 mic & run REW for the first time ever.  The mic came in today & I fumbled through the process.  I was expecting at a minimum a major dip between 650Hz & 4kHz, but I get the attached graph which doesn't look bad to my (untrained) eye at all.  The purple line is the right (bad) speaker and left is green.  What am I missing?

Thanks in advance.

That is pretty tough to read. Please change your scaling so that there is less than 40db from the top of the scale to the bottom of the scale.
