Technically, you cannot use WiiM RC without a target curve. It's just that "Flat" is one of these target curves.Thank you for your workI have a question, do you use target curve?

Of course you are right. But you know what I mean. Flat is as if there was no target curve. I am asking about B&K or Harman. Such "scientific" discussions about words turn a precise thread into a garbage dump.
Yes sure - but there is no L/R here. So how can the most important sonic issues in the room - base modes - be better cured with independent channel RC if the sub out is not stereo?

Maybe three sweeps with one for the sub would be better.
Sorry, but no.
It's lazy, unclear and ambiguous questions turning threads into a garbage dump. If you had put as.much thought and effort onto your question as I did with my answer that would have been helpful.
"Flat" is very much a target curve, because a flat response is not what you get when you put a speaker in a real room that measurea flat in an anechoic environment. Even ignoring first order room modes the resulting FR is not flat. And it's absolutely debatable if "Flat" is a desirable target curve or not.
As to your original question: @Maurizio created a thread dealing explaining his approach in full detail.
Room Correction for separate channels.......what if?
Hi to all I'll start by saying I'm totally clueless about EQ. I'm just getting started with RC and I'm experimenting. So don't crucify me or stone me. 😂 I had a crazy idea to try RC per channel and would like to hear from someone who knows about it if it could work.🤔 So, here's my crazy idea: ...

This explains why the question of target curves available in the WiiM Home RC doesn't really apply.

Ok, I admit you're right. I can admit when I'm wrong. If I offended you, I apologize. Maybe if you had written one sentence earlier and explained a little more, I wouldn't have written this. My reaction is caused by the fact that on every forum I'm on, there are always people who don't help or explain anything. They only strengthen their ego, criticize others for every word for fun. That's why I could have reacted too quickly when I was having a bad day. No offense, peaceSorry, but no.

Hi @ArthurStereoThank you for your work
Yes, i have used BK curve 40/4000 KHz. For my ears it's the best. Flat is too Flat
and Harman give a sound that, for me, is too much similar to JBL sound
Does anyone know if RC for individual channels functionality takes into account the relative output level of L&R speakers and adjust EQ to make sure they are leveled at MIC position ? That's the only benefit I can think of compared to making left and right balance trick with th existing stereo RC functionality.

This looks odd. Why would the right channel be boosted at low frequency but not the left channel when the measured response of both is exactly the same.
Have you run several RCs in a row?
In my experience, running RC in a row has sometimes produced erratic results. For this reason I reboot the app after each one.

Maybe. I think I get better results if I manually turn EQ off before measuring. Not sure what happened this time. The measured results look OK but the correction looks wrong. Luckily you can play around until you get results that look right.
I'll try that next time, and if the RC on/off button works like a reboot, then this button finally has a raison d'etre.

I'm also waiting for the beta. My Dayton IMM-6C microphone arrived a few days ago and it would be worth testing

I have signed up for the RC for individual channels beta test, but even though I have beta tested before I forget how it works. I just remember having opted out, when the last test phase was done. Do I just wait for a new TestFlight code to be sent to my email address or should I keep checking if my Wiim app is updated?
