Update lang po...iwas kulam na rin...

I decided to pursue the "treat my room first" route. So now, I am trying to understand more about my little room's acoustic character. Had some diy panels done at home to start...used rockwool 80% density, light wood 2x2 palochina and kacha then had another layer of gray fabric. I was hoping this will make me feel safer about using rockwool.

Fiberglass is still not out of the question. There will be an ongoing series of tests for me...at least for a couple of months or so. (more like until christmas)

The only other hardware I will probably go for right now are power conditioners...will acquire one soon.
Another is a nice thick area rug...

For now, I am trying to get more familiar with tools like Microlab, Virtual Analyser 8 and Real Time Analyzer using my laptop, an SPL meter and a cardiod mic Shure Beta58. This is going to be a great challenge...starting from scratch. These d**n things are so technical...hahaha. I'm currently using demos...still undecided what to purchase for a 'not so ridiculous price'.

I will most likely try out different combinations of treatments based on whatever I learn going forward.

So, I start with this...with the help of my sidekick driver...

Congrats Alvin....enjoy your acoustic journey

This may solve the "brightness" problem

Will see bro. A friend who is in the acoustic treatment business did mention to me that there are certain materials that focus on the absorption of high to high-mid frequencies. Mahirap nga lang coz my speakers are characterized as 'bright' to begin with.

That's ok....challenge yan......the acoustics comprises 50% of the audio quality content. When done right you'll enjoy more your setup.

Research lang ako dito bro Jake...hopefully maayos kahit konti.

Kahirap ng mga graphs...dami dami puede experiment.

Share ko lang din yung videos na nakita ko...i find them helpful in a way.
I already showed you this one the other day.

Yup. I think this will make a difference bro. I am just trying to decide now if I will transfer my FS (again) upstairs and use it more frequently than the BS. Then proceed with the treatment of the room using my RS6.
Mas nagagamit ko kasi yung sa 2nd floor...aircon kasi.

Hahaha. fafa jess, medyo matagal pa yan (if ever) at hindi pa nga halos na b-break-in yung rs6. Yung rs1, sa bedroom muna cya. For some reason, ewan ko ba...mas type ko pa rin ang Jbl for HT.

ahihihihih ..... malaki kasi si jbl, fafa .....

hmmmm, may malalaki ring "toot" sa bismint ...... poyding poydi para sa inyo yun, KINGPIN !!!!!!

timbrehan mo lang ako, fafa .... Para Samahan kitang Bitbitin mga yun ....

JoeyGS · « **Reply #2637 on:** Jul 07, 2009 at 09:39 AM »

In my opinion, I agree with your peception that the JBL is more appropriate for HT. What I can see is you need a bigger Audio/Video Rooom

....diba?

What you can plan in the future is to build some sort of a covered patio beside your house and this will be your music room. You can even set-up both you HT and Audio in one area. ---- ok ba na sulsultant? hehehe

Puro gastos ang kalalabasan nyang mga ideas nyo ah...bwahahahahha!
Ipon muna tayo para makahirit sa Christmas!
Nasa wish list ko talaga to have a bigger room...i'm just trying to improve the quality of sound in my little room, as is, and at the same time learn more about acoustic treatment...even a little.

Cyempre, I always appreciate your inputs este kulam pala...hahaha.
