Example B: There are no room mode effects here, but there is a dip due to floor or possibly wall reflections. If the dip is no greater than about 4 or 5 dB, you can ignore it - and let this response remain as is. If the dip is greater than about 6 dB, you might try moving your listening position forward just a bit. Otherwise, no equalization is required

Example C: This is a very common pattern you will see in fairly live small to moderate size spaces. The dip may result from both floor and wall reflections and as such may be fairly wide. Try moving the monitor and/or your listening position to minimize the dip's width before proceeding. Equalize the peak.

Example E: Two interference response dips; no peaks due to room modes. This pattern may be seen in small spaces where two different delay paths are evident, such as from the floor and a wall. The absence of a mode peak indicates that the listener is located toward the center of the room. Slight repositioning of both listener and loudspeaker may change the situation markedly. Otherwise, no equalization is required.

Example F: Two LF peaks. In general, you should equalize the peak that has the greater area between the curve and baseline. You may wish to engage the boundary compensation to lower the level below 150 Hz, and then repeat the RMC measurement process.

Adjusting The RMC System
When you have identified the peak you wish to equalize, 1. ) enter its center frequency in the space provided at the bottom of the chart paper; 2. ) in the space provided, enter the level of the peak which is the distance in dB between the peak value and your baseline; finally, in the space provided, enter the width as determined by the width template.
Figure 10a
PULL
Figure 10a shows the Width Template. As shown in Figure 10b, the template is placed over the peak in a plotted curve and adjusted so that the shape of the template matches that of the plot. The corresponding percentage value of width is then read directly from the vertical index of the template. 3. ) Enter the width value in the space provided on the chart paper.

See Figure 11.

Making these entries requires carefully counting the clicks. If you make a mistake, or have lost count, turn the control to the full counter-clockwise position and start over. Rechecking the system: After you have made the equalizer entries it is time to re-measure the system, using Tracks 4 through 26 just as you did when making your first sequence of measurements. Turn on the LSR6328P RMC function by engaging the ENABLE switch, the green LED will illuminate. Perform the same calibration procedure for the other speakers in the system. [. . . ] Recheck the overall sub and main system balance by playing tracks 2 and 27 as well as a track of music that you know well. Make any small changes in subwoofer balance that seem appropriate.

R out
Method Two Many engineers are quite happy with the response of their existing stereo or surround loudspeakers. They may only want to add a subwoofer to their system for more extended bass. You can get a subwoofer feed by sending a parallel or "multed" feed of the LCR front channels - or by using the Direct In to the subwoofer if your signal source has a SUB or 0. 1 (point-one) output.

Measurements, Analysis and Adjustments - The next step is to play Tracks 4 through 26 for correcting the major room mode, and then to make final adjustments to your taste. [. . . ]
