Get great room sound even if your room isn't cooperating with the KRK ERGO Room Analysis/Room Correction System/Digital Audio Interface. The ERGO gets the best from your monitors by working with your room's acoustics with two distinct correction modes.
The ERGO measures the 3D image of your room and then applies 1024 dynamic filters to preserve the room's good features and minimize the room's drawbacks. With its analog inputs and FireWire interface, the ERGO is at home in analog or digital environments. Your computer is necessary to run the room analysis software, however once that is done, room correction is achieved with the ERGO's onboard processor, saving your computer's processor for recording.
- World class room optimization from a device with its own processor
- The ERGO includes its own calibration mic and can be used as a FireWire recording interface
- Switch bewteen two pairs of speakers with room correction modes for Focus or Global

Comments about KRK ERGO Enhanced Room Geometry Optimization:
I have connected ERGO to my HP LapTop's 4pins firewire socket and powered it with the supplied unit.
Everything went the right way, without any problem.
After the very simple calibration procedure the low end in my "focus" position is quite better.
I'll continue to use this little equipment. No doubt about it...

Comments about KRK ERGO Enhanced Room Geometry Optimization:
Didn't work right out of the box. The device sounds promising, use your computer and this little box to correct the bad acoustics in your room or at least make them better. I plugged it in started the software program and only got sound out of one channel. OK, check for updates, download, reboot. same issue. So then I tried using the B set of speakers. Software would not proceed past clearing previous settings mode, just hangs. Set up two sets of speakers and tried again. Reboot computer followed instructions, pressed A set of speakers, what the?? One channel of sound but out of the B set I plugged in. The light for A set is on but the B set of speakers left side is pushing out the test tone??? This can't be good. I don't like the idea of this kinda of device in my signal path all of a sudden. Who knows what it is doing, it sure doesn't . Well I don't know if this thing would make a mix sound better or not as it never worked. After reading more about room acoustics it may be more effective to pay attention to speaker placement and invest in acoustic tiles. Save the money and buy better speakers with it.
