take it then that there is no documentation for using REW with the FBQ2496
The REW Help files and the BFD Guide tend to reference the BFD1124 as far as the buttons on the unit itself are concerned, but the concepts are identical to the FBQ. That's why we never took the time to re-write the BFD Guide.

It would be a shame to use a sub without equalization, so I encourage you to press on. It doesn't have to be too fancy.

First you have to get the unit hooked up between the receiver and your sub and operating in bypass (you already know about that ). We don't use the feedback destroy function, so you only use filters that are parametric equalizer type. So, before you get going you first hook it up and go in bypass and then take time to get its input level set. It will operate in bypass and not affect your system while you learn the rest.

Then you have to learn about REW and connecting it to your system and how to select the FBQ equalizer and how to take measurements of your room.

Then you have to enter those filters that REW recommends into the FBQ.

It ain't too bad.
