You can do that. Some people believe it'll make your built-in calibration THAT much more accurate. Some people rather run calibration first then turn off calibration, use the minidsp, then turn on the calibration after. I personally would run ARC again after using the minidsp
It is annoying that basic processors and mid priced receivers don't have a SPDIF output of the LFE channel output. 99% of Mini DSP users would not have to deal with more RCA and XLR cables and the A/D to D/A conversion.
@@Kpaceguy Never heard that. I’ve always used it that way. Maybe it’s specific to the Anthem mic since it doesn’t have a calibration file like the UMIK or Dayton.
@@Kpaceguy Makes sense thanks 🙏🏾. I’ve gone through the dsp set up before and after I did all the work one of my subs would clip and protect during heavy bass scenes. I didn’t have it anywhere near max. I unhooked my dsp and did a regular aud calibration and the subs played fine. Has your dsp ever caused any clipping? If not off the top of your head do you know what could have caused it? I would really appreciate the help.
This is ONLY for using the dsp. We don't want the test tones coming through the speakers when Calibrating the subwoofer. After you're finished setting up the minidsp you can turn your speaker crossover back to whatever you had it set to
@Lowkey_nxthxn because we don't know yet if you should or not. You can use the measurements to find out if one should be switched or not. Best to start off with default settings and then make changes as you start reading the graphs. You can also change the phase in the mini dsp with a click of a button so you can see in real time what changes are happening.
