How would you go about EQing this frequency response? (with pics)

[QUOTE="Blake Vandercar, post: 8684429, member: 677153"] Here is my frequency response in REW (note that the sub is off. These are separate L-R readings. The tweeters are on an active crossover @ 3.5kHz) [ATTACH type="full" alt="18767"]18767[/ATTACH] See how the 100-300Hz range for the midrange speakers is much lower than the 400Hz-3.5kHz range? So that makes me wonder, when EQing, do I boost the lower range, or cut all of that upper range down? Originally I had my target curve set here: [ATTACH type="full" alt="18768"]18768[/ATTACH] And through EQing cut the 400-3500Hz range down. But I could also place the target curve more at the average: [ATTACH type="full" alt="18769"]18769[/ATTACH] The response that I got after EQing is not that bad: [ATTACH type="full" alt="18770"]18770[/ATTACH] I'm just wondering how more-experienced people would go about it-- where they would set the target curve at before EQing, and why. It doesn't seem good to cut as much as I'm cutting, but I know boosting isn't very favorable either... Also, don't worry about the fact that the tweeter range is much lower than the curve in the second EQ example. I lowered their overall level in order to be closer to the first target curve example before EQing... if I were to raise the target curve, I would raise the level of the tweeters, and re-measure, so that they're closer to the target curve pre-EQing.
