In Reply to: Now I have entered into the active x-over "world" posted by Thomas on September 26, 2001 at 04:01:02:
I use a digital Parametric Eq (Z-sys) into a DSP digital x-over system (meridian speakers) and have set up my system using instruments etc and can just tell you this : The theoretical or measured "perfect setting" sounds like doo-doo ;)
Eventually , I tuned my system so that it sounded good to me despite its departure from "flat" etc - at the end of it all , you have the vagaries of the room , the speakers , the recording and the fact that there is no reference as to what perfect sound is , your aim is to enjoy the music as best you can and allow it to create whatever reality floats your boat , do it by ear.
What you can do is make or get a test disc (there is an excellent test disc called Soundcheck 2 - Alan Parsons) and use a decent digital SPL meter to get a baseline as to freq etc and take it from there but I wouldnt agonise too much if you arent on the straight and narrow
