How can I get rid of a 4khz-8khz room spike?


Using different speakers in various positions and measuring room response with a RS SPL meter, I get a consistant 10 db spike over the 4-8 khz range in my small 11x13 listening room. I have just installed a full complement of room tunes and now must decide on other acoustic treatments and/or tweaks to incorporate. I have yet to place anything other than a small loveseat and leather chair in the room, so the walls are barren. What would best attenuate this 4-8khz bump - wool tapestries, rigid fiberglass, diffusion panels, other???

Nanotweeter...If you must use the RS meter, use it with the Rives Audio CD that has tracks which are corrected for the RS meter error.

My personal experience is that a spectrum analyser (such as the Behringer DEQ2496) is a thousand times better.
