Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

You need more than a "decent measuring mic".

Hi.

Since you did not mention it, what realtime acoustical audio spectrum analyser you use?

I used to use one complete with factory prealigned electret condenssor microphone with realtime display of the complete audio spectrum screen.

I measured my room acoustics with the microphone at my 'sweet spot' with the mic placed on my head. No guessing.

Playing my favourite double-album test CD (actually stereo soundtracks featuring a French pop band, which many speaker vendors used to demo their hi-end speakers), I can see abundant useful 20-30Hz synthesized bass notes pumping out from my KEF 2-way bookshelf speaker (my DIY rebuilt & DISCRETE passive bi-wired) on the screen, while the rest of the spectrum remained flat.

I am happy with the acoustic performance of my audio rig.

As I said, if done properly, I don't think I need to touch the can of active X'over worms. Have fun, amen.

PS: surprised you go for saaannnnd active pulse filters considering your tuby moniker.
