iWooferTM Optimization Guide
This document is designed to show you how to optimize the iWooferTM app to
Earthquake Sound’s line of MiniMe DSP home theater subwoofers and amplifiers.
As you are well aware, Earthquake sound subwoofers use the patented
Symmetrically Loaded Audio Passive System or SLAPS technology that allows
Earthquake to tune the enclosure below audible i.e. 20Hz. Note that the
default
high pass filter setting of iWooferTM is set 25Hz. While this is a good
setting for other brands of woofers (to protect them from failures) Earthquake
subwoofers operate well below 25Hz. Changing the settings shown below in this
guide allows the iWoofer app to go down to 16Hz which is a must if you want to
tailor the iWooferTM app to a Earthquake sound MiniMe DSP subwoofer.
-
After pairing to the subwoofer, using iWoofer(free) or iWoofer Pro ($5) go to Xover setting (before doing Room correction)
-
Insert an EQ boost as seen below. Tap the PEQ On button to cre-ate a band shown as a dotted red line. Double tap or press and hold a band for more than 1 second to select it. Once the band is selected you can slide it left or right to change frequency and up or down to control the gain. Use two fingers in a zoom in or zoom out fashion to change the Q factor. Slide the band over to the left in the 20Hz position.
-
Select Room Correction and then settings within room correction. You will be enabling and disable a few of these settings.
Step 3a: Enable Auto Level and set it to -13dB
Step 3b: Disable Auto Range Recognition
Step 3c: Change Delay to 50ms for smaller rooms. If your room is larger
then you may need to raise it higher than 50ms.
Step 3d: Set Max Boost of Compensation to 10.00.
Step 3e: Navigate back to main menu and select Save.
S tep 3f: You can now navigate to the Room Correction Wizard and start it.
The following settings must be performed after the room correction wizard. These settings must be disabled during room correction.
-
Scroll down to Limiter Compression Control and activate it. Then go to settings and match what is shown in red in the image to the right.
-
Navigate to Options and then HW Controllers and make sure that the HP filter is off and the LP filter is on as shown below. Finish by syncing your file to the MiniMe DSP subwoofer and also save the file to your mobile device. Your MiniMe DSP subwoofer is now optimized.
