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.
I think that may be what I eventually settle on, too. Makes sense to adjust using a method of what sounds best rather than what should sound best in theory.
