Have no idea because you havent listened to them yet, or you've listened and aren't sure about the results?

Measurements look pretty good, as far as you can tell without knowing exactly what's shown. Interesting he's made a bass slope kind of like the REW default, rather than straight line slope, or B&K type slope. Not saying that's a bad thing - it may well be great I've tried curves like that - just wondered if you guided this decision or it's his default.

I'm actually tempted to use him pending your feedback. Sure I could but Acourate and do it myself - and that probably is a better approach long term - but I just don't have the time/desire right now.

I haven't listened to them yet. I'll try to do listening tests during this week. It will be really interesting to hear are these filters better than the other ones that I have created with Acourate.

I didn't give any guidelines for the target curve. Thierry said that he usually starts with something neutral & according audio standards. If I don't like the tonal balance, then he will adjust the target curve and create an another set of filters for me.

I'm also eager to hear your thoughts on the filters, when you get the time. I haven't done any measurements yet with REW, and really don't think I would do it justice, hence why I'm willing to pay the money for Thierry to do his magic on it.

Thierry had mentioned something on the New Loudspeakers & Room Digital Correction Service computeraudiophile thread regarding house curve

Pkane200 - Will you be able to accommodate a house curve, and if yes, in what format?

Thierry - Our goal is to propose the optimal filters set by default. But if you have some preference in terms of tonal balance we can adapt to different kind of house curve format (text file, picture) The process is to start by our proposal and iterate if it is really mandatory

Pkane200 - Thank you. I would definitely want to start testing with an optimal, flat filter. But, my experience flattening the frequency response did not produce the best results. A very slight house curve (a few dB bump below 70Hz and a few dB gradual roll-off after 5KHz) made a big difference. I'll do some measurements and contact you to do a test with a sample track.

Thierry -  Just to be clear when I said "optimal" I didn't mean "flat" : as you said optimal refer more to what will sound natural in your listening environment. Looking forward to your measurements!

Cheers
