As monitors I got a pair of second hand #Genelec 8030C RAW speakers, without any #DSP (digital signal processing). I am quite happy with them, though I thought about getting the #Neumann KH120 II. At first I thought it is a no-brainer: why should I want to pay extra money for the DSP (for room correction) when I can't access it, but then I found out there is a recent tool called khtool (https://github.com/schwinn/khtool) which allows one to control all settings via the Linux CLI.
Anyway, I want to focus on making music and not playing with the CLI, so I decided to keep a room-correction upgrade for a later point.
Solutions in a creative progress have to be invisible, and yet I must be in control, which does not mean I understand every little detail. Set and forget. I can't waste time playing around. (2/3)
Sain aikaiseksi tunkata #Genelec’it jiiriin, päivittää firmikset ja suorittaa huonemittaus. Olen viimeaikoina kuunnellut enimmäkseen vain Applen Homepodeilla tai Sonoksen kajareilla ja äänenlaadun ero on ”lievästi” leukaa loksauttava. 🥰
35 hz kohdalla näkyy kuoppa mutta subbarin nykyinen sijainti on toimivin tässä huoneessa. Olen mitannut
Tänään mun kotikadun eteläpää kuuntelee enimmäkseen drumm & bass ja deep-house -tyyppistä edm:ää. Asiasta voi valittaa mutta se ei vaikuta mihinkään. 😎
Those precious times home alone when I can enjoy playing loud music in the big room 🥰
Wish we had that kind of sound back in the 80s. 🥲

Speaker swap at the office abt done.
Been using Adam A7 for +10 years, and so it will take quite a while to orient my head with the new set.
First impressions: not liking the increased presence of upper mids on the new ones. Even many high-profile commercial album masters sound not that good really. Room is not perfect either.
Adjusting to smoother top end roll-off will take some time too, but it will be no doubt a good improvement towards lesser ear fatigue.
