I've been meaning to post results after measuring my Summits (and room) with the XTZ Room Analyzer (version 1). I'm about to tear down my setup, as we're installing wood floors in the family/listening room, and doing a kitchen makeover. So I did one last XTZ measurement as a reference for comparison after the remodel. All measurements were done with the test signal into my C-J preamp, with mic at ear level in the "sweet spot." This time around, I did NOT measure from multiple locations.
Full range frequency response. Not sure if the rolloff at higher frequencies are due to rear wave cancellations, or perhaps aging preamp tubes or stat panels. Next time I'll try feeding signal directly to amp, to eliminate the preamp variable.
Bass RTA measurement. XTZ calculated "no room nodes," but not as smooth a response as I'd like. No doubt the "new" room will measure differently...
Full Range RTA measurement with RT60 reverb and 2D waterfall plot (sorry, forgot to save the 3D plot)...
My understanding is that RT60 should ideally be < 0.5s.
If anybody else is using the XTZ Analyzer, I'd love to compare results. Also, being an "RTA interpretation neophyte" I welcome comments and explanations about my results!
