However, I do like their method for measurement microphone placement. You have to use phantom powered connections for omnidirectional condenser microphones. I also kept version 3.x of my headphone plugin, as version 4.x brings no audible benefits for headphone users.įurthermore, their Reference software is not compatible to any USB microphone (due to word clock issues). I have a Arcam AVR 550 and am using Dirac Live v3.0.13 In the new version when setting up speaker levels, there is just a blue section in the middle where before there was a bar that went from green to red that helped you dial in the right levels. The current Arcam line has a flaw in how it handles bass management combined with Dirac, you may want to read the Arcam owner's thread for more information.
I never considered upgrading to their loudspeaker solution, since they still do not provide correction for impulse response. Harman purchased Arcam last year and is using their product line as the basis for the new Lexicon RV-6 and RV-9 receivers as well as the new MC-10 processor. HARMAN did great development, which is still ongoing, based on this original 1974 target curve. Unfortunately, the "B&K 1974 optimum Hi-Fi curve" is the only interesting option offered by the software with very little manual control for customizations. Until Dirac will release their own headphone correction, maybe based on a miniDSP EARS headphone jig, this is the most convenient solution I think. I use Sonarworks for my individually calibrated headphones + their averaged calibration profiles for a few other headphones.
