Klipsch Image s4 equalizer preset

(1/2) > >>

Hi

I recently bought a pair of Klipsch Image s4, and got quite disappointed at the first listening (sooo much bass !).
Then I played with the equalizer for a while and the earphones turned out to be just fine :)

Here's my preset I'd like to share :

--- Code: ---eq enabled: on
eq precut: 0
eq low shelf filter: 80, 10, -100
eq peak filter 1: 150, 15, -80
eq peak filter 2: 1000, 10, 0
eq peak filter 3: 2000, 10, 0
eq peak filter 4: 6000, 30, -20
eq peak filter 5: 6000, 30, -20
eq peak filter 6: 8000, 15, 25
eq peak filter 7: 8000, 15, 25
eq peak filter 8: 14000, 6, 0
eq high shelf filter: 14000, 6, 0
--- End code ---

It's based on another one I found here :

(the one from Timar, at the bottom of the page)

Is there any other S4 owners around here ?
What do you think of this preset, and how does yours look like ?

Cheers

Change:


--- Code: ---eq peak filter 4: 6000, 30, -20
eq peak filter 5: 6000, 30, -20
--- End code ---

to


--- Code: ---eq peak filter 4: 6000, 30, -40

--- End code ---

Which does the same thing but with half the rounding error and battery drain.  Likewise filters 7 and 8 are also redundant. 

ofboir:
Oh you're right, it's totally redundant !
It's because the preset it's based on uses only 5 bands (I guess it comes from an older version of RB).

This leads me to a question : are all the bands mandatory ? Can I make a preset with, say, 6 bands ?
Maybe the low and high shelf filters are mandatory ?
Maybe I should RTFM ?  ;D

Thank you !

None of them are mandatory, and you should use the fewest possible bands to achieve the result you want.

I updated the manual to make this more clear.
