RE: Room treatment?




On this track of comparing to headphones ... the angle of the direct sound coming from the side walls in the Rooze makes them kind of "nearphone". This is particularly true in my setup where the tweeters are way back close to the wall and you have the mid-woofer panel and then my 2ft oak baffle extensions. All that extension blocks a lot of the mid and high frequencies from having a path to the opposite ear. So the crosstalk to the opposite ear is greatly reduced compared to normal speaker listening.

I started doing some measurements with a cork head and the Sonic Presence SP15 binaural mic a while back. I was going after another concept at the time. Now I want to see if I can isolate exactly what reaches the opposite ear, and the time difference. I think I can do this ... a Winter project!
