I have 2 Yamaha HS5s and an HS8s (sub) in a home made treated room. The difference is very subtle at first, but then you start to listen to the songs you really know well and hear the CLEAR difference. For me the overall imaging got really tight and the bass got much more predictable. I love the virtual monitoring in particular. Well worth the $300 and 30+min setup if you care about this stuff. The worst part is the cabling nightmare you already created and need to revisit. Review: Really helps me make accurate mixes. There's noting like it for anywhere near the proce. - Before you start, make sure you have your monitor speakers located properly. They include a guide to help with this. Go through the process carefully, using the supplied calibration mic. NOTE: The mic requires phantom power - supplied by virtually all DAW interfaces. Be sure you turn it on. I did the longer setup (didn't take THAT long...). After all, we want to get the most from our investment! An A-B comparison with and without the correction reveals a definite difference: Listening is less fatiguing and feels more transparent. Be aware that you should have at least decent speakers to start with. My Behringer 3021A Truth monitors aren't bad to begin with, so the corrected results were quite impressive. NOTE: You should have your speakers in a close monitoring arrangement, especially in a less-than-optimal room. In the good news/bad news dept: The calibration data is loaded into a box that connects between your interface output and your powered monitor inputs. This is mostly great, in that ALL of your computer audio sources will benefit from the correction. The downside of this arrangement is that you'll have to do another calibration if you wnat to use the ARC system in, say, another studio. Apparently, there's no way to save multiple calibrations, so when you move back to your home studio, you'll have to redo the calibration process. Still, it's a great system. ## Features - Professional-Grade Room Correction System: Includes a high-precision measurement microphone, advanced calibration software, and a dedicated stand-alone processor, delivering precise and unmatched acoustic optimization for any studio or listening environment. - Enhanced Sound Accuracy and Imaging: Corrects frequency imbalances and improves stereo imaging, providing users with a perfectly balanced and detailed soundstage, helping achieve professional-quality mixes without extensive acoustic treatments or additional gear. - Versatile and User-Friendly Design: Compatible with a wide range of studio setups, the ARC Studio system is easy to operate, allowing seamless integration into home studios, professional spaces, or any audio production environment while simplifying workflow. - Authentic High-End Monitor Emulation: Accurately simulates the tonal characteristics of top-tier studio monitors and reference systems, giving audio professionals the ability to create precise, studio-quality mixes with confidence and reliable translation. - Time-Saving and Reliable Performance: Employs a β€œset-it-and-forget-it” approach to room correction, providing consistent and accurate audio performance, so creators can focus entirely on mixing, mastering, and other creative tasks without constant adjustments. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CTQW2ZR2 | | Antenna Location | For Recording Studios, For Professional Audio Production | | Audio Driver Type | Dynamic Driver | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo | | Best Sellers Rank | #24,050 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #58 in Studio Audio Monitors | | Brand | IK Multimedia | | Built-In Media | Software, Measurement Microphone, Correction Processor | | Color | Silver | | Compatible Devices | Audio Interface, Studio Monitors, Desktop, Laptop | | Connectivity Protocol | XLR, USB-C | | Connectivity Technology | XLR, USB-C, RCA (inferred from 'Audio input' and 'Audio output') | | Control Method | App | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (184) | | Is Waterproof | false | | Item Type Name | ARC Studio.

It wasn't obvious to me from reviews that I needed a separate USB audio interface for my laptop to connect the microphone which requires 48v phantom power. Reviews seem to gloss over this, probably because these interfaces are common place in a studio. Luckily I had a cheap audio mixer that worked out. Also fortunate my DAC and amp also happen to have XLR connectors, so it was easy to slip this inline. I'm using vintage Klipsch Heresey I speakers. They are a 3 way horn speaker with 12" woofer. They've been recently re-capped and I love their sound, but I knew they roll the highs off early. After the room correction was applied, it felt like a blanket had been lifted off of them. The 3db tweeter roll-off before correction was around 9kHz, after correction it was pushed out to about 14kHz. Amazing improvement. Seems most speakers on the market use a 6" or 8" woofer, I'm happy to have the punch of my large speakers, and also have the clarity of newer DSP'd speakers on the market. Best of both worlds. The room correction kinda neutered the bass, the flat default profile was a bit too flat for me, but I was able to edit the profile and bring back some of the midbass punch. This is the best $300 I've spent for my audio setup. Especially if you love large format vintage speakers, this breathes new life into them. ## Frequently Bought Together - IK Multimedia ARC Studio.
