Scott Simonian from AVS sent me his mic and ordered me some cables from Parts Express. I have REW downloaded and installed as well as the mic correction files, but I am a novice and complete nooB at mic/REW/measurement so we are just getting started at setting me up. I ran an SPL test at 14Hz and 18Hz so far, it may be a day or two before I get a good FR responce curve measurement. Here are the vids and pics copy/pasted from AVS to show the initial SPL tests just getting to know the mic.
at :59 that crash you hear is my girlfriends Christmas Globe falling from a shelf and shattering. My nuts are now in a vise. THANK YOU SO MUCH SCOTT SIMONIAN FOR THE MIC AND CABLES! I hope I pronounced your name right!!! The noise you hear while bursting is things rattling/squeeling throughout the house, never bottomed out drivers are clean and clear.
[QUOTE=notnyt;20157088]This is from the 33-2050 cal.
so at 14hz youre down about 23db.
You'll want to aim the mic straight up. You can provide sound output to your receiver via hdmi, however the cables are to hook up your mic to your PC's sound card input.
They're fuzzy, but should give enough info on things such as a perspective on the entry way, how far the bedroom door usually is open, the plaster that is coming off the lathe (admittedly on it's own, not from 135dB of 14Hz) the structure of the bed platform, space between and above towers.
My girlfriend and her son finished moving in the rest of their things, some things strewn about. Not quite the same bachelor pad it was, for the better I hope.
5dB increments to see compression starting at -40dB ending at -10dB master volume. Yup, thats a 130dB peak :D Yup, thats solider than solid a 10Hz, yup, look at that 6Hz ;)
