Anyone have experience with using de-esser for sibilance in home audio system?


I've been experiencing sibilance over the past year and have arrived at the conclusion that it's my hearing. 

I'm wondering whether a pro-audio de-esser might help.

Does anyone have experience with this?

If your home office and your main listening room have similar acoustic problems (ones that cause sibilance) then your inference it is your hearing could be wrong.

I would start would the EQ first. Try a parametric and gently scoop out the frequencies that offend.  That could be all you need.  

Good suggestion. Effectively, my question about the rooms is getting at exactly the same cause, but this solution does not require inconvenient changes!
