If you hadn't measured the FR at the listening point then you might easily have bass blobs (don't know exact term in english), problems with the midrange or any common problem you can get in a room. A speaker setup also depends on the distance from your speakers and the SPL you listen at.
Headphones don't destroy speakers regarding price. Because those calibration (more important than room treatment) and room treatment don't need to be extremely expensive.
As an example you can get a free DRC software to use by your own. Then you can buy a microphone to measure the FR in the listening point. If you want you can go for a DEQ2496 and use it as well, but it is not necessary having a computer + DRC installed.

Come on, speakers and headphones have both strength and weakness regarding sound, but headphones just destroy speakers regarding price. Plus : and you just do not realize this calibration and room treatment do NOT come as FREE. |
