Re: what's best place for sub?


Yep, but I wouldn't bother with any of those filters past 100Hz. They would be ineffective once the mains are added in.

Did you know there was a sort button on the filter panel of REW. It's kind of handy to put the filters in order...

Re: what's best place for sub?


The test and graph are the same, but usually it's nice to turn on the mains once you're done EQ'ing the sub to see how well they integrate together. Sometimes they mess up the area around the crossover frequency and you need to tweak the filters a bit....
