these equalizer settings come from a microphone calibrated at a professional sound laboratory.
the only catch is the equalizer used and the differences between them.
for my equalizers..
i just used the 'audio creation mode' from the creative x-fi elite pro software.
i used the graphic equalizer and one of the parametric equalizers to get my results.
one way to get the parametric equalizer for the front channel, you need to select 'parametric EQ' from the drop-down list up top where it says which set of speakers you are adjusting.
graphic equalizer settings:
31hz ~ 12.0dB
62hz ~ -2.1dB
125hz ~ -7.3dB
250hz ~ -5.0dB
500hz ~ -5.0dB
1k ~ -4.4dB
2k ~ -4.4dB
4k ~ -5.3dB
8k ~ 4.3dB
16k ~ 2.9dB
preamp @ 0.0dB
parametric equalizer settings:
low cutoff ~ unused
mid center 1 ~ 3000.0hz @ -11.2dB (0.50 Q)
mid center 2 ~ 4310.0hz @ 18dB (0.23 Q)
high cutoff ~ 5260.0hz @ -18dB
frequency response before equalizer:
frequency response after equalizer:
now with this equalizer calibration.. YOU NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE
why am i mentioning something about it?
because there is a huge dip at 4hz meaning the speaker is sucking on your ear drum obnoxiously at 4hz whenever there is enough bass in the audio to trigger the excitement.
