ATC and Loki

Let me start by acknowledging that I don’t know what I’m talking about, which is why I am asking this question.
 I have ATC scm 40s and a Loki in the mail to me. I’m looking to adjust EQ because of an overly bright room and some low level listening.
I’ve heard that some speakers need a boost in certain frequency ranges even in a perfect room. I’ve also heard that Atc‘s have an especially flat response and may not fit that category. Any ideas about how to adjust the loki or how all these elements interact would be welcome.

Correction, looks like you are trying to tame the highs…. I’ve had the smallest version of your speakers, the little babies, but they had the same tweet andI would never describe them as bright,

sometimes an overlay aggressive midrange will make a listener think “bright”.

whats your toe in like? How close are they to the walls?

I’d still try pointing them directly at you and pushing them closer to the wall behind the speakers. This will increase bass and highs and can tame an aggressive midrange giving you more of what you are looking for.

M6, did you get the loki plus, new from
schiit?  They’ve been out for 6 months (?) and still are.  I wouldn’t hold my breathe…

Are you trying to tip the highs up?  Point the ATC’s directly at you.
