So here I am going out to customers homes doing calibrations and I am constantly coming up against the lack of a good subwoofer crossover / EQ solution. Is anyone else having this same problem?
It got me thinking. What would a good subwoofer EQ look like?
- automated or manual setup? or maybe some combination of the two?
- FIR or IIR filters?
- how many subwoofers would it need to support? 2? 4? 8?
- what inputs would it need to have? XLR, RCA, Digital!!?
- how much should it cost?
- what are other people using and what drawbacks do those products have?
- would it incorporate a LPF? e.g. for rolloff of mains?
- would it incorporate a HPF? e.g. for subsonic rolloff?
My own preferences would lead me down the path of IIR filters, manual setup, 4 subwoofers, XLR inputs, yes to HPF, no to LPF, under $1000...what say ye all?
