Dynaudio setup

[Tob35]

Have any of the more audiophile speaker geeks with the dynaudio package nutted out the EQ settings or have any suggested starting points?

The beauty of audio is that is different for everyone, so one persons settings may not suit your own preferences.

My advice, set some time aside and use some of your favourite tracks that your familiar with how they sound, and start playing with the settings.
Set the profile to Authentic as the other settings will colour the music.
Then zero the EQ settings first and start with the treble, then the mid-range, then the bass, then the sub.
I can't remember my settings off the top of my head, but I think treble and mid-range are about 4 or 5, possibly 6. I don't like lots of bass so it's quite low, about 4 I think, and the sub is 1, possibly 2.

Bear in mind if your car is new the speakers will take several hours of use to "bed in", about 10 hours I reckon.
Even after configuring mine when I picked the car up they sounded flat but now they sound nice.

I have an allspace, so not sure if different than normal tig. It was different than the loaner tig I had for a few days (my1

I’ve left mine on 0’s all round. I play Apple Music/my own mp3’s Mostly, so the file makes the biggest difference in sound.

Some songs the bass is too weak, others the opposite. So no winning!

I tend to like flat/natural audio. As long as it sounds clear, I’m happy!

Ps- I notice some bad clipping with my sub on some songs. Low volume and not even a bass heavy song. Can’t suss out the reason yet. Hardware vs software vs file.

On songs that use the sub, I really like the audio quality the system provides.

Yeah, my biggest issue is the difference between listening to radio and how much more bass comes through when listening to the Jukebox.
I’ve recently found what sounds really great to my ears by having the sound focus coming more from the rear speakers than “balanced or neutral”. It make the sub sound more part of the overall soundscape.

Try this
Sound : Authentic ( Dynamic in some case will be even etter but than setup below with lower bass -2 point)
Treble = +6 or +7
Mid = -9 to -7
Bass=+4 to +6
Sub=0
Dynaudio Sound Focus= Rear only
Dolby= Off

You will be able to have higher volume with this setup but will be more pleasant and not distracting on most sources included FM Radio, I have Euro version 5F so it has also excellent DAB+ and sound is amazing worth all extra money .

What's Euro version 5F?

Sound taste is unique, but I’m not liking the ‘look’ of -7 to -9 for mids. They’re the main body of the music.

For everyone who likes to read boring info read on a bit.

Sound is ‘correct’ when each sound frequency sounds as loud the rest of the frequencies, when played under the same conditions.

The perfect amp and speakers are ‘flat’ meaning that the sound coming from them is visually expressed as a flat line on an x/y chart- showing dB on one axis and frequency on the other.

Think of it like a torque curve on a dyno. Flat is desirable, peaks and troughs at any point are not.

In a basic sense, the bass guitar, cymbal, singer, and lead guitar would each sound as loud and obvious as each other.

More in depth(I’ve forgotten the actual figures these days), you’d generate tones/frequencies and play them at a set power level and record the sound coming from the speaker.

Different speakers and amps don’t always respond flatly though, so we have bass/treble adjustment (or graphic equalisers) which allow us to compensate somewhat for the sound systems actual sound response chart.

On better speakers and amps the offfical charts are provided- allowing the user a way of seeing the native sound character of the system, as well as knowledge in where to adjust, to reproduce a flat sound.

If you’ve heard of studio monitors, they’re speakers produced to have a flat sound signature/character, so artists/editors can accurately colour their own music.
