WOW! Thanks everyone for the advice. There is a lot to digest on this thread, in terms of information. The only thing I have left to do at this point, is measure it would seem.
I don't want to detract from this thread too much, but are you saying that this Mic plugs right into the USB port on a Laptop and works with REW? It used to be considerably more complicated than that.Will any USB Mic now work with REW?
You mentioned in your original post that, at one point, you had a professional set up your speakers. Well, didn't this guy perform lots of measurements? If not, what "professional" service did he provide? Also, can you post pics of your room and setup? That would be helpful.
First thing is to change the "y" scaling to 5dB.
Man, Measuring was probably the worst thing I could have done!I feel completely horrible now. There are 30DB swings in the bass region with a crap ton of treatments! There is a huge null in the high 100s. Depressing.
Don't feel bad, most rooms are horrible, and to fix that null at 50Hz would require very deep bass traps.You should be able to fix that with additional subwoofers.
Never rely on measurements to tell you what something sounds like. They are only guidelines. Your ears are the most important measuring device.It is like some of my female personal training clients relying on the scale to tell them when they are "in shape".Now if your ears are not hearing what you like, THEN the measurements may tell you where to start and specifics of the anomalies.
I really hope you're kidding. This is the WORST advice I've ever seen in the acoustic circle. It's a FACT that it will sound better. There is no denying it. What is your position within audio? I need to know what to stay away from.
The Null at 50HZ is the least of my problems. What about the raging null at 150HZ+ ? That is around the vocal range correct?
