  1. Home Audio Subwoofers
    First off, I'm not even sure I need to ask the questions that appear below. I think the purpose of time-aligning a sub is to smooth out the frequency response in the crossover region. I also think that auto EQ like Audyssey and Dirac do this for you. But if using REW, I think it's a manual...
  2. System Setup and Connection
    To Whom it may Interest: I am a dedicated audiophile/stereo-phile, with reasonably capable electronics/speakers, however, I have never elected to take the time to properly set-up/"tune" my system other than by ear...and now wish to get more precise in terms of listening position frequency...
  3. DIY Subwoofers - General Discussion
    Since getting hooked on all the amazing sub build threads here, I've tried to slowly acquire a 'procedure', if you will, of how to successfully build a HT-oriented ported sub from info found here and all over the interwebs. I figured I would put this out here and hopefully get more or less a...

    I've been trying to set up REW with a dB meter from RadioShack. I've calibrated the soundcard. When I do the "Check Levels" I get a humming/buzzing noise from my speaker together with the test sound. I have connected: - Line-Out (PC) to an RCA-input on my receiver - Line-IN (PC) to the...

  7. REW Forum
    Hi I was wondering what others are doing as a sequence to arrange their subs, running REW as an aid. I have two home made sealed subwoofers with 10" drivers. Both subs are 4 ohm ran by one channel of an older Yamaha natural sound amp which rating is 115WPC. Impedence on the amp is for 8 ohm so...

    I have a Toshiba DLP 52HM84 and I was wondering about if anybody else owns one and when you turn the tv off does the lamp go into a cool down mode or does the lamp turn off right away. Because my tv when i shut it off the lamp would still be on but go off after a few minutes letting the lamp...

I'm currently trying to master the basics of repeatable results so, here is the question: Simply running pink noise I've set my RS meter to read 75db and without logging any freq. results and after playing with the eq (adjusting the bands at...
