Hi,
Just when you think you have done everything right you read something on the net and you're all confused
The problem is, the real calibration of LFE.
I know about placement and so on. To be honest I'm not even a beginner, but still I don't seem to get an explanation to my question.
The question is very simple.
Normaly I calibrated (with RTA) on exactly 85dB including subwoofer. No I keep reading about that the sub MUST officially be 4dB higher calibrated.
Is this true ?
And does it also goes for DTS, because I know DD has a headroom of + 10dB, but I thought this was compensated for on the test tones on AVIA.
Hope someone can shine his/her licht on this.
The articles I read are from professionals and not the major I know what to do blokes. But they all seem to forget to give the reason why, if so............
Please help .
