Graphic equalizer?

Question

What does this mean? 31 hz 62 hz 125hz 250 hz 500 hz 1k 2k 4k 8k and 16k?

Answer 1

When using a Graphic Equalizer, the Bands #'s on the front, for example 31Hz represents the Frequency the the Slider will affect. The Human Ear is said the hear from 20Hz (Hz meaning Low Freq. or Bass) - 20kHz (kHz meaning High Freq. or Treble) so the more Bands (10, 12,15, or more) the better the adjustment in the Frequencies. Most Equalizer when adjusting have an adjustment of 12dB of Boost or cut with a middle point of Flat. When adjusting a Freq., the Graphic Eq. will either Cut, Boost or be set to Flat depending on the Listeners taste. Remember when adjusting the Eq. Frequencies, sound will vary from Music to Movies. The size of the Room, Number of Walls, Furniture, Listening position and quality of Speakers will play a big part in the final product or Mixdown.

Hi.Basically it is a tone control for a wide range of frequency rollover bands of the normal frequency range (20 to 20k HZ)that are fixed in the equalizer and can be adjusted to boost or cut or bypass those bands to alter the sound .

While they may be usefull to correct sound deficiencies related to room acoustics, program material, or your own preference they change the original audio signal so much that it is far from ideal .You will never find them connected to good hi fidelity equipment for that reason. Indeed some hi end amplifiers don't have tone controls at all so as to keep the signal as pure as possible and they cost a lot more than ones with tone controls.

By moving the speakers a few inches the sound can improve dramatically also by having a balance of sound absorbing material and reflective areas you can usually achieve a decent acoustic soundstage .

Hope this is of some help to you.

Answer 3

With a graphic equalizer, it's like you have a receiver that has many "tone controls," each one covering a different range of auditory frequencies. From the details you provide in your question, you are describing a "10-Band" equalizer--which allows you to control the prominence of the sound in 10 different frequency ranges.

With an equalizer you can adjust the balance of the sound coming from your speakers pretty precisely. This can be important if you are a "serious listener," as the sound you get from your equipment will vary considerably from one listening room to another(due to differences in room size, the exact placement of your speakers, the effects of the rugs and furniture in the room, the place where you prefer to sit most often, etc.).

Answer 4

These are the center frequencies used to balance the frequency response of your sound system. It's basically like having more than just a treble and bass control knob on your stereo system. Hook one up to your system and experiment with it in your system. You will hear the differences, and when you get familiar with the controls, then adjust them to get the sound you looking for from your system.

Answer 5

Staring with each and every of the sliders interior the middle of their return and forth, regulate them in simple terms a approaches adequate from that factor to make the sound as solid as you may get it. each and every room is distinctive, so in case you utilize the equipment in particularly some places, you will ought to reset the EQ subsequently each and every time. a powerful audio spectrum analyzer with a calibrated microphone could be a huge help -- yet no longer inevitably a miles low-priced one -- in placing the EQ.
