You seem to enjoy bringing it up. 
An older boy...


Um a boy made me do it.

Anyways, the part that caught my attention was the idea that you are using Audyssey's patented technology, which was clearly invented for end user playback, a technology that even snobbish audiophiles will agree is suitable for end user playback, but you're not using it for end user play back.


If you're gonna use ARC it makes sense to enjoy it 24/7.

best regards,

Mebee we see things differently.


A) I do not need ARC in headphones. They are not affected by my inadequate room.
B) I rarely listen to "end user" music on my DAW (i.e. my Mackie HR824s with ARC) because.....
C) I listen to "end user" music on my laptop (that *can* double as a remote DAW, but is my normal workstation) through my Sennheiser HD600s. That usually tells me *nearly* all I need to know about the "end user" experience.
D) Dulcimers are just plain funny, no matter the context and that is why I enjoy bringing them up. I had all but forgotten how funny they are until you mentioned them (so..... mebee you're the "boy"?)
E) I really do not take any of this as serious as you appear to do, I'm in it for the fun, nothing more.
F) I'm sorry if I offended you.

ARC for 39.99? I No-ah guy.... Anyways, it sounds like ARC is doing what its supposed to be doing if after you turn it off the mix sounds bass heavy. Check the mix on other playback systems and the mix should be more consistent to what you heard with it on.

Daryl,

The cheapest I could find ARC a dulcimer was HERE.

HTH.

Tim,

ARC is NOT meant to be used in a printed mix. It is used to "correct" the deficiencies of your room *while* you are listening to a mix in your room.

If you are gettig bottom heavy mixes outside of your room (in the car, home stereo, on phones) after verifying your mix with ARC on, then I'd say ARC is failing you somehow. And if that is true, I'd say you may need to take your measurements again or address the issues in your room. JMO.

Again, imagine your room has a slight null @ 63Hz and ARC corrects that by boosting 63Hz (which is now noticable in your sweet spot) and you now hear a balanced 63Hz in your room. It would be odd to think that everywhere you take your mix the same 63Hz null, as in your room, will be present and your mix needs that "correction" there too. Do you see what I'm saying?

BTW, I *NEVER* listen to mix with headphones on my DAW with ARC turned on. ARC is only turned on when I am making critical mixing decisions thru my Mackie HR824s.



I know Baps. Thanks.
