Hello good afternoon .
I just did a calibration with dirac live full.
I have a thx jamo d500 boxes which fall below 80 hz. Should I cross the emotional pre-selection?
if in dirac I throw the curtain up to 80hz, am I cutting the boxes or can I correct the entire range in dirac and then does the previous one take care of making the cut?
Thanks a lot

Not sure what you're asking, but cross over speakers to sub at 80hz- yes do it.
Depending on what your pre/pro is, most will go full range if you choose it, in direct mode.

Hello and thanks for answering
I'm sorry with the tradictor and my words can be confused.
I ask if I in dirac calibrate the entire frequency range of 20 to 20,000 and then cut the speakers before 80hz will cut them? since my speakers fall below 80 to be thx.

You dont typically set the 80hz filter in Dirac (even though I guess you could), you do that in the preamp/receiver. |

Thanks a lot
in dirac I run the curtains up to 80hz which I say from there is until 20 no filter would apply.
Then I can equalize the whole band and then apply the cut at 80 in the emotional.
thanks

Thanks a lot I'm still not sure exactly what you are trying to ask, but see if this makes sense... With Dirac, you can set it such that Dirac won't adjust certain parts of your frequency spectrum. That's what the curtains are for...limiting what Dirac tries to correct for. Then separately, you have your frequency cutoffs by speaker set within the Pre-pro. So, if you don't set any curtains in Dirac, but have a speaker set to not play below 80 hz (for example), Dirac will correct everything about 80 hz and your speaker won't play below 80 hz. On the other hand, if you set curtains in Dirac to only adjust from 3000 hz and up and cut off the pre-pro below 80 hz...your speakers would play from 80 hz and up but Dirac would only adjust from 3000 hz and up. And, if you were cutting a sub to not play above 80 hz, if your Dirac curtains were set to only take affect above 80 hz...then Dirac would not be doing anything for the sub. In other words...Dirac does adjustments to counter room issues within whatever frequency ranges you choose. But, your pre-pro controls which frequencies your speakers play. If those are frequencies Dirac is set to adjust, it will. If not, it won't. I hope that makes sense. Mark |

thanks more or less makes sense
I only apply the curtain so that Dirac does not equalize from 20Hz to 80Hz and apply the correction on the speakers from 80Hz to 20,000Hz
on the subwoofer I apply from 15hz to 300hz
If I set an 80 hz cut in the emotional, would I be doing well?

If I understand what you are wanting, you really don't need to bother with the curtains in Dirac. If you set the cutoff at 80 hz in the Emotiva pre-pro, your speakers that are playing about 80 hz (so - all speakers but the sub) will get corrected from 80 hz and up. And, your sub will get corrected in frequencies it is playing (which would be 80 hz and down). Basically, Dirac won't adjust any frequency the speaker is not playing as defined by the cutoff. (Of course, realize the cutoff is not a firm cutoff...so I'm over-simplifying. Your speakers that play above the cutoff do play below the cutoff with dB rolling off quickly as defined by the slope chosen...and the subs play above the cutoff, but roll off quickly...but, really - don't worry about that as it relates to curtains). Now, if you wanted your speakers that play above 80 hz (front right and left, for example) to not be adjusted by Dirac above some set level (like 3000 hz) - that would be a reason to use curtains in Dirac. Some people do that because they prefer the sound of an upper end frequency range "as is" and unchanged by Dirac. Mark |

many thanks
is that we had a debate in a chat where they told me that the cut was made by the curtains.

Hello friends
I was messing with dirac and with the txt options of each speaker, somehow I decided to activate the high pass filter in the speakers and I put it with a 12db slope with a cut to 80hz since as dirac left it I did not notice the directionality of the speakers and it lacked detail, because putting this filter has greatly improved my boxes. recovering a lot of detail.
I don't know if it will be correct or not, but I'm going to leave it like that for now.
