I recently acquired some 4560 horn cabinets to use in my home system. They are loaded with TAD 1501a drivers which seem to work very well in these cabinets. For the upper end I am using a 2123, L85, and 077.
The system has a passive network for the top end and for the bottom end I am using a JBL DSC 260 for biamping. The horns are great but seem to have a boosted midbass on certain recordings. They are crossed over at 250 hz to the 2123’s which is the lowest recommended but I still need to attenuate the midbass.
I have been reading about RTA’s on this forum and have gained much valuable information but I’m still not sure how to proceed. Do I swap out the DSC 260 for a dbx driverack and use the autofunction to correct this
Or should I keep the DSC 260 and use a behringer dcx-2496 in line to do the adjustments? Would it be better to use the behringer offline to do the measurements and manually adjust the DSC 260 to the desired levels or would this be too much of a pain? I know there are better units available but they are out of my budget!
I have also played around with adjusting the DSC 260 by ear but I don’t like not being able to measure the changes.
Any advice would be appreciated!
