| Re: Doing the REW and BFD thing - general discussion and questions along the way A few questions:
After posting those charts, I went through another REW sequence where I basically started from scratch. This second time around, the target response that was calculated was pushed up to something like 86dB from the 83 shown in the graphs.
What is going on with that? If I increase the sub level again in response to Gard's suggestion, won't this number keep going up because things will be recalibrated to this higher SPL?
Also, if I go with Gard's suggestion of raising the level and then filtering down the peaks, do I increase the level on the receiver or the sub?
BTW, it might be worth noting that in my attempt to set up the input level to the BFD, I had a of a time causing more than 3 LEDs to light up. I used Darla Tapping (Nemo), Sock Explosion (Monsters), Pod Rising (WoTW) and Omaha Beach (Saving Private Ryan).
But, I do have a bunch of "room" left on the sub's gain control, so I'm guessing I should increase the level there.
BTW, I did some quick sweeps in different listening positions and I was surprised at how deep that dip at 63-ish Hz got in some places.
