They have a pretty flat response when on poles, which is good. I’d probably use them on short tripods behind me to maintain that, even for live use as the response will change if they are positioned like wedges. Try setting them on their ends if using them as wedges leads to boominess.
Without hearing the noise it’s hard to say, but XLR will be your best bet for low-noise. Set the Output level in the modeler to +4 dB. See Section 4 in the manual for more information.
The Headrush cabinets tend to be boomy in my experience.
Yes - mid price studio headphones with a Sonarworks reference 4 correction.
Greg, I think this is true for any cabinet - the sound is always affected by where it sits and what it is in contact with - for me, I can usually tweak to satisfaction using the front knobs on the Fractal- just tonestack adjustments. The nice thing about the EVs is they actually publish the frequency response - most other manufacturer’s don’t do that, so it’s more trial and error.
It is true of all speakers, it’s just how physics works.
