Post Subject: Haze.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 9/27/2012

Last night, after making the post above I spent a lot of time moving speakers and adjusting the location of sweet spot. Macondo still is not fine time-aligned but well enough to do what I need it to do. I generally was able to get some more or less acceptable sound with slightly different location of speaker and couch but it is not what bothers me. Above everything my playback has some very mind but very annoying haze. This is not noise but some kind of lack of crisp in presentation and THAT is something that I feel kills the whole giving and prohibit me to find the optimum new location of Macondo in the “new” room.

I truly do not know how to describe this haze. It is not the haze literally and not the “absent of back”, or anything like this. It sounds more like overly HF reverberant room, only room has to be fine. I can’t figure out if that haze is acoustic or electronic nature. I need to test it somehow and find a way to impact any change in the haze – then I will be able to know where it comes from and will address the reason. I am thinking about methodological step that I can make to make any different in the "haze"….
