Re: Can I use a single channel amp with REW


One thing you might consider researching is the usable bandwidth for the panels you've made. For instance, absorption is only effective when it is thicker than 1/4 the wavelength (when mounted on the wall). So at 1kHz you have a 1 foot wavelength which means you need a 3" panel (or thicker).

The 1/4 wavelength rule shows up with diffusion and lots of other stuff too...
