I’m convinced that as I age (61), my ability to decided between what should sound better interferes with what sounds better to my hears. I’ve EQ my setup with a MiniDSP. The frequency response is shown in Green and roughly +/- 3 dB. The response without EQ is shown in RED. The miniDSP is obviously doing its job in flatting out the response. However, the EQed response sounds dull and lifeless and I much prefer the sound of response through the MiniDSP without any filtering applied. Has anyone had the same experience with EQing to a flat response.
sometimes your ears just need to adjust. i’d try it a week and see what you think. you might like the extra midrange emphasis.
but the no-eq’d FR is not bad. it leaves the 200-1k range alone which is the most important for something sounding “natural”. the treble and bass boost is well within what an engineer might do to give something more presence
