[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 35372, member: 30"] Re: Frequency Response/Contour EQ in full range systems. I assume you are talking to me about this-if not, then ignore this. First of all lets assume (which is incorrect-but is all we can do) that the system that the system the recording engineer was using was "flat". So the relationships of different freq to others is based on what he wanted you to hear-because that is the way he heard it when he mixed it. Let's say the lows are 10dB hotter than the highs in his mix. So when you play it back in a system that has a 6dB bump on the bottom, and then measured again (using the same input source), you would see that the lows are now 16dB hotter than the highs. This is NOT how the engineer intended you to hear the music. It may sound "better" (or not depending on what you like-some people like more bass than others-so who is "right"?), but it is not accurate or having the intended response as the origional recording.
