[QUOTE="Jay Barracato, post: 35715, member: 24"] Re: Frequency Response/Contour EQ in full range systems. I keep seeing a discrepancy between what the sytems measures and what the ear hears in this discussion. They are two different things. It doesn't make sense to me to claim that because the ear does not hear flat, you shouldn't tune the system flat. I look at it as stimulus/ response. I think the SE needs to figure out what the appropriate profile for the system is (the stimulus), in order to make the ear hear what they want (the response). I also think it is helpful if the SE can build in flexibility to the stimulus curve so that it can be adjusted in reasonable amounts in either direction. A system that is tuned to the extremes of its capabilities lacks that flexibility. Personally, I like a system that is about +6 in the sub region, basically flat from 100 to 10-12 k and then gently rolling off. I am not claiming that is what my ear hears, but that is a system that will produce what my ear prefers. [/QUOTE]
