New loudspeakers & room digital correction service

It works just fine with any good music that you like, in my humble opinion. These filters unfortunately don't make bad music any better Wink

I can only comment my own personal, non-scientific/non-technical, view on this. So, I took one measurement on the sweet spot (in the middle of the sofa) and 4 other measurements around the sweet spot, covering basically the whole sofa. The measurements clearly showed that there are significant differences between the measurement points. Anyway, I'm happy with the results. Music sounds nice where ever I sit on the sofa. I don't feel like needing to have different filters for each listening position (left/center/right side of the sofa).

Perhaps you should give it a try, at least the free trial? Smile
