I made a notch filter! That, and played around with settings too. Got it tweaked in a little better I think. These are from this morning and includes my mains and subs in all of the sweeps. Audyssey on DEQ off, Crossover 100hz Then on the mini: Uploaded filters from REW +4db at 75hz Adjusted Q to 5 to make it a notch filter No smoothing.

This is the best I've heard my system sound. @Bucknekked is gonna have to come over again and check it out! Wasn't without a lot of frustration, sweat and tears though. I have never ever ever done anything with eq outside of room correction. This is not for the feint of heart, but if you put in the time it's worth it. There's more improvement adding the mini than I thought there would be. I'm listening to some music right now with a big ol' grin on my face. Thank you everyone for all of the help! This was one hell of a journey and despite my trial and error ways of doing things, it was fun too. Reactions: TheWarrior, Bucknekked and KEW

Pogre Audioholic Slumlord Jul 29, 2016 16,146 0 113 56 Mesa, Arizona Aug 27, 2017 #308 There is a fair amount I was missing before this. I'm listening to all of my music again. It doesn't just play really deep, it thumps you in the chest now. If you guys remember, at the start of this thread I said that my towers had more mid bass presence by themselves in direct mode that I wasn't getting with my subs on. That has flip flopped. The mid bass sounds better than the towers in direct with the subs on now. That was, ultimately what I was going for. Everything I did was like a rough draft and I'm probably gonna redo it now that I'm much more familiar with the menus in the mini. Not today though... I'm gonna enjoy it for a while first!

What do you attribute the improvement from 15-20Hz to? That is the big difference, otherwise, I would consider the curves pretty equivalent (as in both excellent)!

I've got it turned up pretty good at this moment (-15), enjoying some tunes. It's really cool to hear all of those tweaks in my music that I can see in the measurements. My son walked in a little bit ago and asked again if I did something with the subs, "Seems like you have more bass now". It's not one of those cases where I think there's a positive change, it's pretty obvious and he caught it too.
