[QUOTE="Andy Turner, post: 203979, member: 10677"] Finally ready for paint, measurements and dsp settings. All comments and input and questions are very welcome. The boxes are made with RCF 8Ohms, passive filter on the coax so two way active and the dsp settings for this setup is done with dbx driverack PA+. There are 'only' 2 PEQ's for mid and 3 PEQ's available for high, plus a graphic EQ which is also heavily used. Still I think there's a long way to an acceptable response, but I must say that these boxes have potential. Thank you Peter Morris for sharing :0) and thanks to all who have helped. I will try FIR with rePhase or like on Powersoft later, and hopefully end up with a miniDSP balanced, ALLdsp or like. The FIR solution is going to be tough for a beginner like me that still haven't managed to grasp the FIR theory :0) I was hoping to find a tool that you could simply import the measurement, press start and voila haha... not. Please also share your setups with dsp and amps. How are you driving these monsters? :0) The first measurement is with delay (1.5ms) only. no EQ. The second was using a dbx driveRack PA+ with settings enclosed as PDF. The sound from the DIY with the posted settings is far from my taste, - even when it's within +-3-4db there is something going on that makes some soundtracks sound far off, but I also learned with this box, that even the smallest eq can make a big difference. Also I know many speakers today including my d&b are designed with a very specific frequency response to make it sound 'nice' even with recordings that are maybe not so nice to the ear. I did measure my d&b boxes and tried to create the same response on the DIY but it again, the DIY boxes are exceptionally responsive to even the smallest changes in eq. [/QUOTE]
