Eric, could you explain in a little more detail how you would make the jig and where you can get that room eq. Is the room eq in place of the meter measuring esr.
HELP AFTER MY MODS, My tweeters are subdued and weak-
So I have a pair of Mirage M1 speakers, I changed the caps in the crossovers to Jantzen Superior Z (for the tweeters) and standard z for the mids and bass.
I also changed the internal cabling to Supra Classic 2.5.
First Impressions- Not burned in yet
The highs are there but really recessed in the background. Theres a song I reference and it has a steel guitar solo, I can bearly hear it through the vocals because its seems recessed so far back.
SO HERES THE QUESTION- Is that a symptom of unburned in cables and or caps, or is that just what Supra cables give you?
When I changed the internal cabling a few years back on the same model speaker, I used DH LABS t14 Silver plated cable, This had the opposite effect, it was super bright and fast, but it smoothed out and the brightness relaxed, leaving a lot of detail but not so much your ears bled.
But here its the opposite, its dull on the top end and the vocals kind of take over and blur out the top end.

Hi Ida, I sent you a link which explains all of it. Room EQ Wizard is a free speaker / room measurement software which has been enhanced to also do impedance measurements. This includes speakers, caps and coils. It has a vibrant following, and you'll need to ask their discussion groups for more answers, but here is the link to the software: https://www.roomeqwizard.com/ And in particular, here is the description of how to do impedance measurements with it: https://www.roomeqwizard.com/help/help_en-GB/html/impedancemeasurement.html But I don't actually use it, I use low-end hobbyist/pro gear instead. Still, this would be among your cheapest options. Best, E |
