    I want to amend my post, #6. When I turned off D-EQ I started to get graphs that showed the subs starting at 70dB/15Hz. I have since run some tests with D-EQ on and I still get similar results with a full rang on both axis. Turning the D-EQ off and on triggered something that allowed REW to get...

    Thanks for the reference reading material. At first glance thats going to take me a while to understand.

    The SVS PB2000 is a ported (4") sub. It would be greatly appreciated if @John Mulcahy could drop in an offer some expertise. I'm sure he could clear away some of the smoke. ;)

    So this leaves me wondering what did I actually accomplish. What do theses measurements show? It would be really nice if I could smooth the blue curve between 37Hz and 85Hz; Also the red curve between 50HZ and 120Hz. What is the next step in determining how to naturally smooth these curves?

    I used Variable Smoothing.

    Here's what I discovered. My PC was setup correctly. The problem I believe was in my AVR. I left th Multi EQ XT32 on and turned off the Dynamic EQ. I then took these measurements. To my untrained eye these look a sho-huff lot better and more what I thought I would see. Are we in agreement?

    Thank you for your response, likewise to JStewart. Let me explain what I did to start this. I’m using my desktop Win 11 Pro PC. I have 2 HDMI connections that I can use. One is on the motherboard and would use Intel sound drivers. The second is on my AMD graphics card and uses AMD sound...

    Hello to everyone. I just bought a pair of SVS PB2000 subs. I'm trying to learn how to use REW so I can tune them into my home theater room better. After reading the instruction PDF file I believe I have all the preferences set up correctly. These are my preliminary readings shown in the overlay...

    By looking fine are they okay? Do they need adjusting? When I installed Asio4All I was shown 8 speaker choices for 7.1 surround. The both subs turn on when #04 is selected and are measure simultaneously. How do I measure one sub at a time. Do I have to turn off or unplug one sub while measuring...

    I tried to attach the .mdat file but it won't attach. It's 20.5 KBs because it has all 8 measurements in it. Is it too big? Edit: I separated the file in half and it let me attach them.

    These pictures are from my main seat where the measurements were taken. Left and right fronts are Klipsch Forte III's and Acoustic Research AR-3's make up the center channel. Distances: LF & RF = 9.9' C = 8.4' LSW = 8.3' RSW = 8.5 LS = 10.7' RS = 12.0' LSB = 7.1' RSB = 7.6'

    Hello and Happy New Year to everyone! This is my first post in the forum. I have been playing around with the Umik-1 and the REW software. I calibrated my REW according to the instructions for using MS Win-10. I've watched a couple YouTube videos as well. I'm not going lie this is very...

    Hello to Everyone

    Thank you for allowing me to join the party. I started my home theater six years ago. After a few upgrades I‘ve arrived at a place where I can feel satisfied. I have one last upgrade to make. I want to replace my center channel with a Klipsch RC-64 iii in walnut. When I’m not watching movies...
