Re: Room Resonance and Amp

209.215.72.232

Technically, it is impossible for an EQ to correct room modes. In practice, you can gain some relief by using such EQ in the very lowest frequencies, however, realizw that this will not actually eliminate the room mode, just partially counter it with another deviation from linear response. One thing to be aware of, is to NOT try and use a notch filter of the same depth as the measured resonance peak. Go for only about half or less of the amount it seems it would take. Otherwise transient bass information will be adversely affected.

As for letting the amp burn-in, this is SOP, and while it might tighten up the bass some, probably not enough to make you want to not try and address the bass problems.
