Example 2. Two Response Peaks:

FIGURE 17

Two response peaks

Characterized by two response peaks, approximately equal in amplitude and width. This requires that you make a choice between the two peaks. In situations like this, the higher frequency peak will always be more audible and objectionable. Response peaks below 45Hz, unless extreme, can actually be beneficial toward achieving visceral impact. Perform corrections on the upper frequency peak.

Apply the Width Selector as described above. Align the center-line of the Selector over the center of the higher frequency peak. Now adjust the Selector until you have achieved the “best fit.”The slider now points to the correct width setting. In this example, this is at 52Hz.The best-fit width is 28%. Fill in the Width and Frequency fields provided on the template.

Determine the appropriate level using the technique described earlier. This calculation will indicate a -8dB setting. However, this peak does not reach the 0dB level as the lower peak does. Therefore, a -8dB setting would be excessive. The 52Hz peak stops at -2dB. Subtracting 2 from 8 yields the correct setting, -6dB. Enter -6 in the Level field.

Example 3. Peak Adjacent to a Dip:

FIGURE 18

Dip above or below peak

Response dips can occur at any frequency, sometimes immediately adjacent to the peak you want to correct.Two examples are shown, one immediately above and one immediately below the peak. Deep response dips such as these are caused by destructive wave interference. Destructive interference dips occur only in one spot within the room. It is not uncommon to completely eliminate the effect by moving the RSLM to a different location. Note that this does not eliminate the dips. We have simply moved away from them. Sometimes only a few inches are required.

Do not attempt to correct this condition with equalization. If you encounter dips like this, take the following steps:

1.2s specifications

The Infinity 1.2s is a revolutionary advancement in the world of audio technology, specifically designed for audiophiles and sound enthusiasts who demand superior sound quality. This state-of-the-art speaker system boasts a range of features that ensure impeccable audio performance, making it a popular choice among professionals and casual listeners alike.

One of its standout characteristics is its exceptional frequency response. The Infinity 1.2s is engineered to deliver a wide frequency range, allowing it to reproduce both deep bass and crisp treble with remarkable accuracy. This enables listeners to experience music as it was intended by the artists, with each instrument and vocal nuance clearly pronounced.

Incorporating advanced driver technology, the Infinity 1.2s features a combination of woofers and tweeters that work in harmony to create a balanced sound profile. The woofers are crafted from high-quality materials to minimize distortion while maximizing bass response, ensuring that low-frequency sounds are powerful yet controlled. Meanwhile, the tweeters employ cutting-edge technology to deliver high frequencies that are both detailed and smooth.

Another significant technology embedded in the Infinity 1.2s is the innovative crossover design. This sophisticated crossover network effectively divides audio frequencies between the woofers and tweeters, which enhances the speaker's overall performance by ensuring that each driver operates within its optimal range. The result is a seamless transition between low and high frequencies, producing a cohesive sound that is rare in many consumer-grade speakers.

The build quality of the Infinity 1.2s is also noteworthy. Constructed from durable materials, the cabinets are designed to minimize resonance and vibrations, which can muddy sound quality. This focus on sturdy construction not only enhances audio fidelity but also contributes to the longevity of the speakers.

Furthermore, the Infinity 1.2s is equipped with versatile connectivity options. It can easily adapt to various audio setups, whether wired or wireless, offering compatibility with a range of devices and systems. This flexibility makes it a great choice for both home theater systems and high-fidelity audio playback.

In conclusion, the Infinity 1.2s stands out in the crowded audio market due to its impressive sound reproduction capabilities, advanced technologies, and rugged construction. Whether for professional use or personal enjoyment, these speakers offer a remarkable listening experience that is sure to satisfy even the most discerning audio enthusiasts.
