...It's about the Curve, Dummy!
This morning I disconnected the notch filter and listened as long as I could stand it. Not long!
Then, I went over my math and remembered that I went the way I did largely because I "already had the parts".
After an extra cup of coffee, I got a good deal more serious with the numbers and I realized right away that although I had centered the filter well enough, it was rather a broad swath compared to the VERY SHARP resonance I want to damp, and my half-assed filter had made troughs on both sides of a softly rounded rise.
So, it's back to Parts Frenzy for the stuff I don't have (...how can there still be anything I don't already have?).
Hard to believe anyone can actually just sit and listen to these things without a filter! I will either temp up the old notch or do something other than hi-fi until I get a filter on that spike.
On the Plus Side, the Reps are imaging significantly better than the DX4s did (and the DX4s are pretty good...).
Off the cuff, to Stock Lowther Lovers and DIY Guys: I guess I just don't get the Big Attraction!
