[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8796677, member: 673702"] You don't need an RTA to tune. TBH, I found the RTA was holding me back and ******* up more time that it was worth. My RTA has been gathering dust for years. You can RTA by ear. Just get 1/3rd octave banded pink noise and run thru the tracks. Your ears will tell you when a band increases/decreases in output. Sine sweeps are great for tuning by ear too. If your ears can't hear the difference but it shows up on an RTA, does it matter??? IMHO, it's more about having/using a methodology to get the tuning right. Deal with crossovers and phase first. Then move on to EQ. I had long @$$ write up on how to tune with a DAP on CAF years ago, but one day I logged onto CAF and it was gone. :confused: [/QUOTE]
