In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
I am sure you've all seen John's video series on dealing with his rooms, but these (there are 2 or 3?) are exactly what @erik_squires  has been helping me with.      
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@erik_squires Morning.  Thanks again for things to try.  I'll look more into the "gated measurements" method.  I'll also look into OmniMic.  REW is really incredibly powerful program (free even!), and I think can be used even at a very surface lev...

@erik_squires Ya just wanna jinx things, don'tcha?!?! 🤣 "Don't be so sure, yet.  You can't hear bass problems because you can't hear bass.  Once the mid-treble issues are dealt with these may become apparent and need to be dealt with separately....

@mijostyn I agree with you.  To me, his space needs 2 subwoofers (at least at this point it sounds like they do).  Frequency tests show 130hz and lower just drops like a stone.  Example : 1000hz is at -24db, and 80hz is at -44db at the nominal lis...

@erik_squires 1) "Try recording your speakers and then listening that with headphones, or a friend’s voice in the room."  THAT IS A BRILLIANT IDEA!!!!  He has a very good headphone amplifier and headphones, so this would be a perfect exercise.  I ...

I am sure most have seen this video series, but just in case I thought I would post. I found this very useful to hear 'before and after' from his space....yet played thru my fathers system and echoy room--so it's VERY obvious the echo/reverb.   ...

@mijostyn   The room is just so large, in a VERY large full size basement (it's effectively the nicely finished region of the whole basement  with the basic 'foundation walls' as the boundaries, (listening area = 34'L x 24'W 10'H) with the other a...

@yoyoyaya HA!!! Bigger is not always better!!!  It's funny his space is over sized and empty, and my space is VERY small and VERY not symmetrical.  I honestly think someone could have a really cool business of doing live -[ place your favorite ins... 
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@yoyoyaya I was almost thinking the same thing!  Like, I wish I had and played the guitar, and could play a tune in the space, then play the same song thru the sound system and illustrate how much is "one generation of echo/reverb sound", and when...

@erik_squires I’m on your side man! You were 100% right, and dead on!!!!! Maybe you’re just ahead of your time and they are behind the curve? 😆 So he happened to have 6 of those yellow 2" fiberglass panels (unfinished). I talked him into letting ...

@erik_squires and @fthompson251  and @elliottbnewcombjr  I did some real crude measurements (REW) and noted in looking at the RT60 measurements, he has around 600+ms of 'reverb'  from 1200Khz up to 15,000khz, with the highest being 800ms at 5000k... 
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@elliottbnewcombjr   I had uploaded an image to Flickr online, and gone thru the process you mentioned but for some reason when I hit "post response", I immediately get a warning screen "you are currently being blocked".  I need to figure out the ... 
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@fthompson251 I think you're right.  I'm going to try just shifting everything backwards (towards the front wall) and starting there just to hear the difference/comparison.  Always finding doing one extreme to the other with some things really hel... 
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@elliottbnewcombjr Thanks for the idea and links for things!  This is exactly what I am wanting to do, using Room EQ Wizard (REW) just to get a very crude general idea of what the speaker is doing at the listening position with it's ability to pla... 
In-Room responce measurement with Legacy Focus SE speakers
@mijostyn "Sibilant' is a very good descriptive word for what his room/speaker set up sounds like to me.  As mentioned, to my ears it sounds as if the woofers aren't even functioning.  It's funny you mention about getting an anechoic effect by tak...
