​To access EQ and Delay settings on SRX800P loudspeakers, you will need to install and connect to the unit through HiQnet Audio Architect, available for download here.​
 

Connecting to the Unit

You can connect directly to your PC via the unit's Ethernet port, or through a network switch if multiple speakers are being addressed.  Ensure that your PC's network adapter is recognized by Audio Architect (you will be prompted to add network connections on first launch).

Once inside the software, drag the appropriate number of SRX800P units into the project window.

Select the Go Online button in the upper-left toolbar, then manually match the discovered units to the devices in your project space.

After matching, select the Synchronize Venue option from the toolbar, then use the Send or Receive options from the speaker icon:

• Send applies the settings you created offline to the connected unit.
• Receive pulls the current configuration from the unit into Audio Architect.

For first-time connections, it is strongly recommended to use Receive so that the software mirrors the loudspeaker's existing settings.

Accessing the Equalizer

Once the device is online, double-click on an SRX800P icon to open its control panel.  From there, double-click the "EQ" button in the middle of the control panel.

The EQ section gives you up to twenty filters to shape the system.  Filters can be set as bells for focused cuts or boosts, shelves for broad tonal shifts, or high- and low-pass for rolling off extremes.  Each filter has three controls: Frequency to set the target point, Gain to raise or lower it, and Q to determine how wide or narrow the adjustment is.

A good approach is to work gradually, small moves tend to sound more natural than drastic changes.  Bells are useful for taming specific resonances or feedback, while shelves can gently brighten or warm the overall mix.  Cutting tends to be safer than boosting, since it preserves headroom and avoids overloading the system, but a broad, modest boost can add life if used sparingly.  Narrow cuts, on the other hand, are excellent for notching out problem spots without touching much else.

When you land on a curve that works, save it in Audio Architect as a preset so you can recall the same tuning later.

Accessing the Delays

​Back at the Control Panel, double-click the "Delay" button next to "EQ."

The delay section lets you align speakers that are physically spaced apart so their sound reaches the audience at the same time.  This is especially useful when you’re combining mains with fills or subs placed further back in the room.  The delay can be adjusted in milliseconds, feet, or meters, and changing one value automatically updates the others.

A good rule of thumb is to think in terms of distance: roughly one millisecond of delay equals about one foot, or 0.3 meters.  Measure how far a speaker is behind the reference point (usually the mains), then dial in the matching delay so their wavefronts line up.  Small tweaks can tighten clarity and prevent phase smear, while over-delaying can cause audible echo, so it’s best to adjust just enough to sync arrivals.

When you’ve set the right value, you can save it as part of your preset, ensuring the alignment holds every time you load that system configuration.
