steps

Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me with what I should be thinking about next. I have 5 filters on my preamp that I can use per channel which I use mostly on the low end. I'm trying to have the low end 8-10 dbs higher than the frequncies after 100hz, but I can't really pull that off...

Recently purchased the RS SPL meter and have been playing with REW since yesterday. Now that I have my measurements, I'm not sure what next steps to take. Right now this is what I have in my bedroom HT: Energy CB-5's for LR Energy CC-10 for Center HSU STF-2 Pioneer VSX-1019AH-K My...

Hello, first try, first post.... I got two SVS PB12nsd subs and thought that this is the ideal occasion to try out REW. I have a Onkyo SPL-meter and used that for measurements. It looks exactly as the old Radioshacks and the manual lists identical specs. I went down the route the helpfile...

I got my SVS PC12-Plus to replace my Polk PSW350. It's a massive difference, and now I'm attempting to tune it for my room. Here is the first graph with corner placement: I had a null at 79.1 Hz. I figured since the wavelength there is 14.3 ft and the front-back measurement of my room is...

This is it... the famous post padding thread so that you can get your first five post out of the way quickly. The old post padding thread got wiped out accidentally... we apologize to those who may be inconvenienced.

I have already gotten partway through building a theater in my home, and I have decided to document it in the hopes that someone else might find it interesting or helpful, or at least not so boring they want to hurl themselves off a cliff. This is the story of a man, his house, and a small...
