I am happy to report that the MiniDSPHD setting in REW will allow you to export a text file that you can upload into the minidsp app which may save some eq setting time since my curve needed more tweaks to get flattish. I won't beg but one of the more interesting things I would love to hear your thoughts on is the alignmentology of multiple subs. I only have two but time alignment has always felt like a guessing game and I am sure there are better methods than the one I use.
How's everyone doing today? As always thank you for making us a part of your day.
Always! Cheers!
Doing alright. Definitely having a lazy day! Your videos are always the start of Sundays. I hope you’re doing well.
Hi kristi 😁😁. You and Andrew are a lovely part of my Sunday 👍😁👍. Thank you!
Alex
Always look forward to a little part of my Sunday with you guys! Much love from Chicago!!!
Kristi I loved the video. Thank you. I would like to see a 2 subwoofer and mismatched subwoofer review.
I own a large Hsu research subwoofer but due to space I want to have a smaller kef subwoofer. Getting them to blend will be fun.
We want the two subwoofer video
There are other videos on TH-cam that get into more detail and more steps. But this video is one of the easiest to digest and implement. The others, try as they might, still manage to make it intimidating. They might be more detailed and better, but if one has a hard time following them and end up not implementing anything at all, then "perfect is the enemy of good".
Waiting for part 3 of this series.
Great Video Andrew and Kristi! Extremely straight forward and well explained! Out of all the subwoofer/REW vids online, your explanation is one of the best out there!! Thanks again!!!
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
Yes, two subwoofer set up please.
God damn, you made the most easiest and the most pleasing mini dsp REW sub setup on TH-cam.
So glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
Hello Andrew and Kristi, thank you so much for getting the second part out so quickly!! The video was excellent and very useful! My vote is yes to a follow-up video with multiple subs (3 or 4). This is the type of content that adds so much value to your channel, learning is a life-long journey!! Thank you so much!
Great tutorial to finish off the series. For home theater applications, what I have found works really well (for me at least) is to EQ the subs as flat using PEQs on the output tab of the MiniDSP software and then run room correction. After room correction, I use a Low Shelf Filter on the Input tab PEQ. Center frequenzy at 35 hz, Q at 0.8, and boost to taste. I find the 4-6 dB of boost is about right, but I also use Audyssey Dynamic EQ which already applies a house curve. This setting gives me a really enjoyable house curve that starts gradually rising around 50 Hz. I like this curve slightly better than the one most TH-camrs use because it still gives incredible deep bass impact but also reduces chestiness in the vocals.
This was a great video. I did this when I set my system up over a year ago and it was a HUGE improvement compared to before hand. Totally worth the time.
Well done! I like how clear and coherent this was. I used roughly the same approach. I'm glad you highlighted that the most important step is to place your sub correctly at the beginning. EQ can only do so much to fix poor placement.
Oh wow you finally did a vid on this. Nice! I have been running the miniDSP HD 2x4 for over 2 years now. My Marantz AV7005 has dual sub out, but I run only sub 1 into the miniDSP and run three subs. MiniDSP by far is the biggest upgrade to my bass. Even more than adding a 3rd sub in the rear. FYI - you can export from REW then import into the miniDSp, no need to type it in.
Great video! Thank you guys.
Very NICE Andrew. These educational series are my favorite hands down! This is some of the most critical and useful pieces of content you can offer your viewers, especially for those entering the hobby, and even those more seasoned enthusiasts that have not yet encountered MDSP and REW. Investing early in ones musical journey on the likes of the MiniDSP, mic, and REW allows for an easy option to deal with room acoustics; absolutely one of the most critical components of any systems. The impact of these adjustments deliver value far beyond what most understand. It can save a customer signifcant money if hobbyists will "tackle" this process before spending hard-earned dollars on say, better DACs, amps, speakers, and cabling - if your room is creating problems, no amount of money spent on components will resolve the problem. Again, one of the single most important pieces of content you have offered your viewers!! As always, thanks for being there and for all you do! EXCELLENT!!!
This series of videos has been outstanding!!! Please keep them coming!!
Great video. So much work using rew & minidsp. Thought about going with minidsp before going dirac. Really glad dirac works out foe me with my 7.3.4 setup.
I appreciate these videos in this series. They’ll be saved and used when i set up my audio systems in my new home.
Great video. I have SVS subs and an Anthem receiver. Is it better to use the SVS software to EQ the subs or Anthem’s ARC software ? Or maybe a better way to ask the questions: when you have in multiple options/places available to make adjustments how do you decide which one to utilize?
Having the calibrated mic at the listening position will make the best results. Is there any other way to get the data from the calibrated mic and apply it, except in the miniDSP?
Thank you…do not know how I missed this video…most rew videos how to measure only …thank you for showing us how to start correcting the problems
Awesome!! Looking forward to the 2 subwoofer series… part 3!! 😉
Looking forward to the next episode, these 2 have been really helpful thanks so much
I just use 4 subs all around 2 behind the listening room and two in the front I run both behind me out of phase ..
All I can say is , it's effortless and easily matches what my rs1b did (12x8 inch servo controlled woofers,) which I sold year or so ago
Thank you. with your channel help I was able to build my system this year!
I was overwhelmed by the information available on the internet, but you always manage to explain things in a way I understand :)
So glad we could help!
Thorough and to the point. Well done. Eventually I will get around to doing this.
Short and to the point, great job 👍
Fantastic, easy to understand information for non-tech nerds! Can't wait to see the 2 sub setup. I recently got the RSL 10 MKII and I want to add another! This sub has changed my whole world coming from a cheap polk. Great work as always :D
Noted! Please help us by giving the video a 'like' if you haven't already. It really helps.
I'd certainly be excited to see a video similar to this one that looks at dual/multi-sub setup. Also, would you be willing to address how to optimize the phase and timing of the main speakers and subs using a MiniDSP device? Thanks!
Once again excellent and helpful video, thank you guys!
Great wizard, thanks for sharing the knowledge!!!
First - A huge "Thank You" to the gentleman who wrote and provides us with REW. Awesome! However, I've found that anytime I try to use REW to tune my system I have to do two things: 1) Clear the calendar for the whole day and 2) Pack a big lunch. Oh, be sure you have some of your favorite adult beverage handy. You'll likely need it. 😉
A friend of mine wanted to build an DBA (Double Bass Array) with miniDSP Devices beside his Genelecs and i can say, its a nightmare to setup. He had so many problems with the miniDSP devices because even the Support have no idea, when you build up complex setups like Arrays - they cant help you. After two months of frustration sended back the stuff. Ìm very happy that ive an Neumann Sub incl Monitors where the software is easy to use but still very powerfull and you get awesome results out of it
As always, this video is SO timely. Absolutely looking forward to the 2-sub video because that's a spinning-plates type of circus act with everything that can be played with (room placement, ported, sealed, variable phase, distance adjustments, etc).
Personally, I just like the demonstrations of using the MiniDSP products, especially understanding how something with lots of stand-alone capability like the SHD fits between other stereo separates.
VIDEO SUGGESTION:
A video summarizing ways to add an HDMI ARC input to a 2ch system would be amazing (since we know that only a few manufacturers have added such capability so far but it's pretty universally wanted).
That was great very helpful. Thank you. I was very helpful. I was a recording mixer before I retired for Universal and Warner Bros.. You do a good job. Thanks.
Do you miss it? Working for the studios? In a previous life, I made movie posters for them and others.
Thanks for watching!
Great video well explained and thanks for reminders!
Thank you, this type of video is greatly appreciated !!!
Although I don't have the need for multi -subs, I'm still interested in the video for expanding my knowledge and understanding.
Excellent video, Andrew!
I a Dirac version on one of the miniDSP units, which I haven't yet configured. It's great to see the REW method. Thanks.
That was excellent and easy to follow, perfectly done, 2 and 4 subwoofer video would be great tx
Great video - for sure duel sub setup will be perfect - just got my second 15" installed lastweek :)
Please do the dual subwoofer video!
Great info, thanks Andrew, you are a gifted teacher. Have you or anyone out there had any experience using the Dayton Imm6 calibrated mic, I have 3 subs I'm constantly adjusting, I'm working on getting a mini dsp and mic, however updating my reciever is probably my first priority
Never used room eq on my 2 channel system, I guess I should one day…… good video as always.
Thank you for making this video 😊
Thank you for watching this video!
Yes, I'd like to see the 2 sub video. I've heard so many comments that as great as one sub will improve the sound, 2 subs is even more impressive, so it would be great to know how to set up 2 subs. Great video, keep it up!
Great job as ALWAYS, very detailed and informative 💪🏾
Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
I think these how to videos are amazing for a noob like myself! Thank you, Andrew for being so thorough in all of your videos!!! And thank you, Kristi for catching the stuff Andrew forgot!!!
You're very welcome!
Thanks, now I have reevaluate my system again just be sure it’s spot on. Here’s to many hours spent in my favorite room…again;)
I enjoy your reviews and Kristi’s perspectives. DSP is great technology, but a little bit can go a long way. It can get echoey. We have an integrated amp and a 2.1 setup. Music is more important for us than home theater. We also live in a small townhouse. The sub is a Velodyne ULD-12. Yes, older technology… The speakers are 1954-55 vintage JBL’s, my dad’s. The integrated amp has a dedicated subwoofer outlet with a filter about 90 hertz. The Velodyne has a crossover fixed at 85 hertz. Cascading filters might be a problem - I have not tried it. I use speaker level connections to the sub and from there to the JBL’s. This allows the crossover to do its job passing above 85 hertz to the JBL’s and below to the sub. The only control for the Velodyne is a level. I set it by ear. The sub is in a corner and it works well. With most music you never know the sub is on. Billy Idol’s “Rita Hayworth” is substantial. Movies, well, boom, you can feel it.
Thanks, Andrew. A Dirac Live Bass Control calibration video, including mic placement and Filter Design tips!
This might be one of the most interesting videos by far - thanks! A SUGGESTION: I'd love to see what a miniDSP with its software can do with a wide band bookshelf.
Hi Mr Robinson I love all your reviews with your wife as well! That’s great support! My front stage is Definitive Tech 9080X with center speaker 9080 system. Have them set to large the front and center set to small. Have in Denon receiver set with no subwoofer
This was excellent. Nice work! Multiple subs would be nice to see or a Dirac tutorial.
This was very good. The best video I've seen on the topic. Two subs next please.
Great video! This is very helpful! Is the more expensive microphone going to create a significant difference in data? Is it worth the cost difference?
Great video, thanks for it. I'm amazed how rapidly complexity grows the moment you want to move on from more automated software such as Oddisey and the likes.
At least this software can serve to show off with friends coming home, but we all know the sub is going to be located where it matches the wife factor anyway.
Wow. Thanks so much for this. I got to the party late so i was able to do my speakers and sub all in one shot.
I have a new respect for you after this masterpiece!
Very informative video. A lot to process. But that’s ok. Well done.
Awesome, I was looking forward to this video! I like that you started with a single sub as many of us aren’t up to duals yet. When time allows it’d be great to see a separate video on calibrating duals, especially with the Multi-Sub Optimizer that people are raving about.
On the subject of house curves, if one is using an AVR with Audyssey or Dirac, would you recommend EQ’ing the subs to flat without an REW house curve so that the room correction software can add its own when they are re-run after the MiniDSP tuning?
Been excited for this one !!Great review
Thank you! Please help us by giving the video a 'like' if you haven't already. It really helps.
Love you two and can’t wait until Sundays show. I would love to see multiple subwoofers ran on your show. I run three Monoliths and would love to see how you do multiple subs. Thank you for great shows & reviews. I also love that you and your wife do it together!!!
Noted! Please help us by giving the video a 'like' if you haven't already. It really helps.
Thanks!
A few other steps I do during measurements is set the crossover of all speakers and lpf for lfe as high as it’ll go. This makes it easy to isolate the sub response from the speakers without having to unplug anything.
Great one, as always. I wished you could have mentioned the phase control and “…what if you use high level connections…”
Maybe they can be addressed in the next chapter of this odyssey? 😊
Love this, hope you continue the series with surround systems (recievers) and multiple subs.
And people need to learn to behave 😬
I think this series will continue --maybe not monthly ---but ongoing for sure.
Top notch video as usual!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great informative video!!! I would love to see a 2 subwoofer video.
Great job Andrew as always!
Interested in a subwoofer so a review of the klipsch and maybe others too, would be great!
Also would love you guys to review the cabasse rialto active speakers and possibly also the cabasse abyss integrated amplifier. They look like awesome products. 🙏🏼❤️
Fantastic video - bravo! Sure beats the very flawed method of subwoofer crawls and produces far superior results!
You can still use the crawl to find one, two or three suitable placements then dial them in using the methods outlined here.
Thanks to you both I love my miniDSP SHD.
🙌
Thanks for tuning in! The SHD is SOOOOO good! One of the best products we've discovered this year.
Good introduction to Mini DSP. I use mine to control 3 subs in my room. More advanced would be to introduce BEQ for movies. Seeing Bass response with REW and adapting placement and setup with concrete data makes the process so much easier and far better end results.
Thanks!
Another great video. Love them, but I don't usually post comments. Thought I'd show some appreciation. Keep it up and yes please do a 3rd one with multi-sub calibration. And yes, I gave this a like
❤
Thanks!
another great video. Looking forward to part 3, seriously considering picking up a minidsp to mess around with after watching these.
It's one of my favorite products for just playing around with because you can do so much and kinda play speaker designer or acoustician with interesting results!
@@andrewrobinsonreviews yea. In the car audio world I always used audison or mosconi with rew and a umik 1 but I never messed with it in a home setup
IMO, you should start by setting the graph range to 50-100dB. In your video, the 0-120dB range is making some 4-6dB problems look minor, but that is a certainly audible difference.
It is also worth creating 2-3 different listening presets, to provide bass boost at low volumes, and taper it off at high volumes.
Thanks! Yes, I do have stereo subs for my 4K and use them as I hear the difference even as old as I am. lol
Excellent presentation as always, but I have a question regarding implementing a miniDSP in a surround sound system with only Audyssey, and using a pair of passive DIY subs powered by a basic 2 channel amp lacking both input filter and level controls.
I could be totally wrong with this approach, but have long held the opinion that since the receiver (currently Onkyo RZ740) can handle the XO turnover and level control, a basic amp should suffice. So this would be a good time to get expert advice /correction in that regard.
The question is that while my particular receiver has a pair of LFE/sub line outputs, they are in parallel. Could this approach with a 2x4HD allow for the type of “true” multi sub approach for which numerous requests have no doubt already been made?
Thanks Andrew and Kristi. Really enjoying these setup videos. Would love to see a dual and 4 sub setup.
Also a specific one for Yamahas built in eq would be awesome.
Keep up the great work!
You can enter Room EQ Wizard filters into Yamaha receiver's because they use PEQ whereas others typically use graphical EQ.
@@andrewrobinsonreviews so I could skip the mini dsp and use rew to measure each speaker and then use the results to update the Yamaha? Makes sense. I know you played with this on you rx-a4a before. Did you find a improvement over just running ypao?
Id probably still get a mini dsp 2x4 to control the 4 subs since the Yamaha can only do 2 and only down to 30hz I believe
Multiple subs (more than 2) gets tricky and in almost ALL rooms is a non issue, I’ve found.
Nicely done and very informative.
Thanks for watching. Multiple subs can be helpful but you're right, most people don't need two and most people have their second or third sub setup incorrectly which may be costing them bass.
Great quick video and tutorial, please make the 2 subwoofer video next
Great video! Always informative.
Thanks so much!
:)
Great video! Concise, comprehensive, and well produced as always.
For future content: maybe a video about aesthetically pleasing sound treatments (absorption, diffusion, bass traps) in the context of getting rid of a gnarly null. I’m currently doing an over the top living room build that hides the speakers, subs, and treatments as furniture and wall art, would be cool to see how you’d go about a similar setup. 👍🏼
Check out the Home Reno playlist for similar content.
As always, nice job!!!
Suggestion, maybe in part 3, talk about phase alignment with delay (distance) adjustments in the minidsp to fix issues when the mains don’t cross well with the sub or subs.
If we do a Part III that is on the menu!
Once you have your system dialed in, what is best practice to adjust for a track with way too much bass emphasis, or a track that is recorded lower in volume? I dont want to keep having to adjust the sub volume up or down.
Really appreciate these deep drives! My only question would be if you aren't as flexible with speaker location you just basically "do what you can" in the eq and maybe add treatments if possible?
Fantastic video as always...what id like to see is my speaker 8000fii with a quality sub like rythmik FVX 12. Vs R700 alone. I remember you saying that the R700 was more versatile....what if you added the rythmix FVX 12 servo sub geared for music and home theater? The cost would be "IDENTICAL" ( in "my cousin Vinny" voice) Please use the sony reciever with the 360 spacial audio....lol
So with all these measurements, how do you then translate that back into your system,. Is the minidsp kept in the signal path, which signal path? Is this just for a stereo / subwoofer setup? what about theatre systems?
Outstanding video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think optimizing around the whole 3 seater couch you guys have, instead of just the middle seat would be a cool video option. If that requires 2 subs, even better.
Awesome vid! Thanks a lot.
I'd suggest maybe doing something about subwoofer feet/spikes, coupling VS decoupling, room rattle etc.
I've found that decoupling via a plank of foam insulation (temporary, gotta find a decent product for the job, if you have any recs btw) made a big difference in my room. It's a 1st floor room that is suspended (wood joists) and quite bouncy and I was getting very muddled bass, and a fair amount of general rattling. It's now much more controlled and tight, and bizarrely giving me better chest "thump" for AV. Interesting stuff.
Anyways thanks again guys have a good one!
Surya
Noted! Please help us by giving the video a 'like' if you haven't already. It really helps.
Awesome video! Well, all of them are, actually. A 2 sub video might be interesting.
Thinking of buying rz50 with one sub sound good using sr5008 looking to add atmos, 5.1.2 system trying to do that
Some of the best parts about this series that you're doing, which by the way I love. Is that when I do upgrade my receiver my subwoofer,and Atmos speakers. I can relate back to this series and learn how to do it. And if I hear other people talking about it, I can always refer them to your video as well. Keep up the good work. PS you know the base heads are going to ask for you to do two subwoofers next 😂
Appreciate it! Yes, these types of videos are a bit less topical and meant to be references that can live on and on. And yes, part III will most definitely have to deal with multiple subs, phase, time alignment etc. Hope you're well Nick!
@@andrewrobinsonreviews I'm feeling amazing thanks for asking! You are right about these types of videos! They're meant to be timeless and something you can always reference too.. I hope you and Kristi enjoyed your coffee this morning and have a lovely rest of your day!
Great series! Thanks for the help on tuning my system. I do have multiple subs (because I'm a freak) and would love to see more on this. Cheers
Noted on the multiple subs!
REW works for multiple subs. There's also very serious (free) software out there called MSO, Multi Sub Optimizer. The primary benefit of that is that it helps dial in the subs so you get good bass response in multiple seats. If you only want to optimize for one seat, REW will get the job done even with multi subs.
@@KimmoJaskari thanks, i will check that out
Another great video.
I appreciate that.
Is it normal to have very-big floorstanding speakers that are set to "small" in your AVR so that the AVR will high-pass them and send the bass to a sub? Just feels wrong setting big speakers to "small" but it seems my Sony AVR requires that setting to have a sub crossover setting.
That was the best and most thorough explanation of how to use all of these methods. I’m still confused and I feel like there should be a tutorial that answers why I’m to do each step. And what happens if I don’t click on a certain button. Obviously computer stuff isn’t my thing. Still a good video. I won’t give up. I’d like to know if this would work with my Yamaha as3200 and two subs. That’s really what I’m aiming for. Stereo only, 2 subs. Thanks you two, good job.
We're in the same boat, you and I.
You should check out his other video that he references in this video. He goes through the steps. I watched it soon after I commented here.
After watching this video, I was curious about placement and measurements for surround sound speakers and how to measure their sound regardless of which speaker someone chooses. That would be an interesting video.
These guides are terrific! Thanks so much on behalf of all the noobs out there 😂
Happy to help!
Thanks! Please help us by giving the video a 'like' if you haven't already. It really helps.
I saw few similar requests, but I will repeat it again :D dirac setup :D with my RZ50 I'm getting -12dB on subs channel and it feels like it is cutting it out :/ on Onkyo's EQ software it is much punchier. Thanks in advance :)
I heard about directional base but don’t know if it results in any significant improvement. I think the starting point in using directional base is to have 4 subwoofers in the 4 corners of the room and having each one output when the sound is coming from that area it’s covering.
I have always been led to believe subwoofers base is non directional because if placed right and calibrated you are not supposed to know where the subwoofer is by listening to where you perceive the sound to be coming from.
