    Are my crossovers not working on Marantz 7013

    The xover was set to 250 as I was working with REW and the MiniDSP setting up my subwoofers. It is normally set at 80. I was just concerned that I was seeing sound output in the mains when running a 20-80 hz sweep with the xover at 250. It was probably due to my receiver being in the stereo...

    Need advice on sub cal and room layout.

    Thanks for the suggestions. Will give this a try later today. Should the dips at 70hz be addressed?

    Need advice on sub cal and room layout.

    !st time REW user, Marantz 7013, 2 SVS SB13 subs, Martin Logan XT40 LR mains, Martin Logan XT50 center, Martin Logan surround and Atmos in ceiling. Did a 1st run of REW and the results are less that good, IMHO. I have done no EQ or movement of the subs. Both subs have been upgraded to the new...

    I am sure it is something in the new laptop as I have uninstalled REW on this laptop and my Surface Pro7, Reloaded REW on both and ran with the same configuration and the Surface works great.

    After further investigation it looks like there is something in my laptop (HP Spectre X360) that may be causing the issue. Connected the UMIK1 to my Surface Pro7 and ran REW and the SPL meter and sound performs ok. Thought I would try the REW SPL meter using the built in MIC on the HP and get...
