KRK ERGO


Has anyone tried the ERGO (Enhanced Room Geometry Optimization) from KRK Systems?

Some dealers are suggesting using this unit in their listening rooms to correct room issues in order to get better sound. Originally created for recording studios but apparently people have been having great results in their listening rooms with this unit.

It retails for about $500US.

Take a look at the JBL MSC1: http://www.jblpro.com/catalog/general/Product.aspx?PId=286&MId=5

Used as intended the Ergo shouldn't have latency issues,but used as an improvised subwoofer room correction device & not in the signal path of the main speakers, I would assume the 1024 tap FIR filter takes some time processing the signal & a few ms of time delay of the sub vs mains. The JBL looks interesting (& even cheaper). The manual isn't clear about the details of the RMC correction technology (how many filters etc), but looks more suited to use as a subwoofer "controller/EQ". Room treatment is probably best starting point. I've been experimenting with 8 12" subs (infinity prelude mts)divided between 2 channels at various positions & heights in the room (16x21x8'tall)in 3 zones controlled by 3 velodyne sms-1 controller/EQ's attempting to overwhelm modes (confuse them at least)& smooth overall response. None of the subs are "working" very hard with this configuration & more subs seems to smooth out room response.
Harman has the BASSQ on their synthesis/performance web page, but customer support says it never came to market. Manual is on line & some AVS members claim to have one. Manual isn't at all clear as to what type of "processing/EQ" it's up to. Sean Olive's research indicates the "listening panel" doesn't "prefer" flat "in-room" response anyway, so working my way thru Floyd Toole's book to gain more insight
