My fellow Fractal-lites.. I’m sure this has been addressed before.. apologies if so.
I’ve just moved house. My setup is in my study. If it helps, here’s a pic of the room, just to give you guys an indication of layout and so forth. There’s carpet, there’s curtains/blinds, and there’s a cupboard which you cannot see in the photo.
I’m using Yamaha HS7’s which are centred to the room as per the pic below. I’ve got multiple setups:
Somehow, most of my patches sound kinda boomy (more boomy than bassy) and for some reason, whilst I’m playing a lot artist-style patches, mainly patches that have been created by @2112, @Burgs, @ProgressiveRocco, everything kinda blends and sounds kinda the same. I know it’s not the patches because in the previous house everything sounded better. I am using both standard and aftermarket IRs but regardless of this, whilst I could change cabs/IRs and alter some patches etc, it’s a ‘band aid’ fix, it's not a proper fix.
Looking for some guidance and advice from anyone who has experienced this before, and what did you do to resolve the issue? I strongly want to avoid editing and changing patches, I’d rather look at other options if possible. Should I place something under the Yamaha HS7's to reduce some of that boominess?
NOTE, it might be a bit of a challenge to convince wifey to allow me to put up some of those acoustic foam panels, but if I have to, d_mn it I will!!
Thanks in advance.

- Axe FX 3 (amp sims + the Yamaha HS7’s)
- Wizard amp + 2x12 cab
- Wizard amp + Suhr Reactive Load + Axe FX 3 + Yamaha HS7s.
