Frequency response charts for Beolab 3 (free, corner, wall)?

4 replies

Hello again!

 

My new subwoofer is on its way to my home and I've been thinking about the setup... does anyone have frequency response charts for the Lab3s for the three filter switch settings? (I would do the measuring myself... but got no usable mic [but an excellent analyser, though ;-) ])

 

If you know somebody who has them or where to find them, I'd be very happy to hear from you! Even just the filter cutoff-points and steepness of the slope would be appreciated! :-)

 

TIA,

Simon

I'd be surprised if they were available anywhere, and I'd personally do it by ear if anything - you'll find the crossover slopes become a little bit meaningless when there's any significant phase difference between the tops (BeoLab 3s) and sub. You can also use an 'incorrectly set-up' crossover slope to your advantage if you're having phase issues around the crossover point (a common issue).

Out of interest, which subwoofer have you ordered?

hello,

With my Beolab 3, I have Beolab 11 with a beosound 4 and it works very well.

Have a good day.

Ok, I planned to set up the system by ear anyway. I just would have used it as a starting point, so to speak.

 

The Lab3s will be playing along an ADAM Audio Sub 10 Mk2, which is a 200W ICEpowered, 10 inch monitoring sub with balanced input from a RME HDSP/Multiface II.

 

Thanks, ;-)
