EzSet mic position and upsampling 48-96 kHz question

393 Views 1 Reply 2 Participants Last post by  M Code
I recently purchased AVR 435 and have two questions.


1. For near field position of the mic....do I set the mic at listening position directly in front of the speaker with the mic pointing up towards it? Or do I position it at speaker lever, in direct path to me and point it directly at the speaker (mic is parallel to floor on tripod)?


2. There is an option to upsample from 48 to 96 kHz. Should I upconvert? What are the benefits/cons?


Thanks!

Near Field

The microphone should be 10"-14" in front of the loudspeaker, tripod/rod should be angled at about 45 degrees aimed between the tweeter & mid-range.
Far Field

The microphone should be vertical pointed upwards, its height should be @ ear level when sitting down.


Note that Room EQ software is quite complex so make each measurement carefully, also depending upon the room and its furnishngs you may want to do some trial and error for microphone positioning. It does an incredible job for low frequencies (
