GM,Yes, my first objective is just to measure the room and understand what I have to start with.
My first attempt with the RS meter in-room at my listening position and with the Stereophile disk 2 frequency sweep warble tones produced a frequency response curve for my front left and right that was + or - 3 db from 30Hz to 4Khz, then I have a frequency bump of +3db up to + 6db at 4kHz and 8kHz before going back to normal at 9kHz.
I also have what appear to be 2 room modes, a -5db null at 50Hz and a -6db null at 200Hz.
The reason I am comtemplating a PC software RTA, impulse and energy measuring system is not for absolute accuracy, but for the following reasons:
1) a graphical record of each change vs effect that I make
2) a close to real time display of changes/effects as I make them
3) a cost effective solution (only software, I will use RS meter mic)
4) MY TIME! Changes can be accomplished rather quickly vs. just a RS meter and a frequency sweep and my pencil and paper.Currently trying to find anyone who has used the ETF5 software program, but nobody has responded in the affirmative yet.
What do you think?
