| Re: My first REW graph, do I need BFD
Henry,
What kind of sub is this? Is it a budget model with a small driver? Judging from the fact that it rolls out fairly hard below 50 Hz, a relatively high frequency, that would be my guess.
If that’s the case, you’ll want to be very careful using the BFD, because equalizing a sub ends up placing additional demands on it. So you really need a subwoofer with headroom to spare.
Don’t mean to put down your equipment – just don’t want to see you damage it! The little 8” M&K sub I have for my computer speakers complained loudly with the low notes after I put a BFD on it!
That said, if your normal operation is at lower volumes, as you indicated, you should be all right.
Regards,
Wayne
