Hi Fi Audio System Setup 

I offer a range of professional audio services which I have developed over the years through education, experience and industry work. This Audio system test/measuring service this is an objective, data driven process using professional grade equipment via Measurement Mics also external XLR or RCA outputs which is very practical and safe. I incorporate standardised methods to test a full systems response by utilising powerful new technology and I carefully observe, listen to make necessary adjustments.

 

This includes Amps, crossovers, subwoofers, L R Speakers, 5.1,  ATMOS / DTS X systems in order to integrate an entire system seamlessly together. The ultimate objective is a coherent, balanced in phase sound with great imagining and soundstage qualities (to the best that the specific environment and usable room dimension will allow!)

Custom Made Test Signals For Testing Hi Fi systems 

I have made my own custom made test signals designed in ProTools to truly test your system response in ways many non audio engineers may have not have though possible in order to runs tests and as a result get the most out of the equipment you are using.

* I can also run custom tests on crossovers to fine tune systems response

* I also have the tools to tun test analysis of your system internal response, preamps in graphs.

​* Cabinet resonance issues can be measured and fixed.

Acoustics / Room Treatment​

Class 1 & 2 Mics - NTI Dodecahedron Measurement Speaker​

​

 Acoustics can be affordable, adaptable and even mobile like my personal space. I use Professional grade equipment in conjunction with Laboratory data and methods that are standardised in the industry to tailor design listening spaces. You may be surprised that you can get a balanced room sound with a good room constant value, mostly free of modal resonance and frequency peaks etc for quite a modest price from seemingly common materials, it all comes down to accurate measurements, skill and implementation.

A Great sounding Room?

In the field of Acoustics, a perfect room is considered to have a response of +\- 1 - 3 db over the entire audio spectrum (rare) but actually 5 db is more often achieved and a very good professional result for studios & Auditoriums etc. Some seem to think deadening a room with cheap "studio foam" makes an ideal space but adds to a high room constant value, lowers the clarity index and neglects qualities such as timbre (not timber) as swell as neglecting good RT30 response (liveliness), all of these have a substantial impact on room acoustics.  Sometimes more issues are created than solved. I use my training in Acoustics and Audio to custom tailor your listening room and have assisted recording studios in the past to reach help their goals.

*There is always a compromise between budget, wife friendly, usable space in addition to geometry and materials of the existing space, but I always find ways to implement solutions.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

** In order to keep prices down I don't usually offer Predictive Modelling for listening spaces but can.
