Maybe it’s because I disabled the crossover on the sub. Most people are probably testing subwoofers in a finished system trying to tune the room and have low pass filters turned on. It made sense to me to get a full sweep since I’m testing the room, not tuning an installation. I'll probably put...

Hi guys, I do appreciate the input. I’ve been busy with some construction and planning, intend to try to take some box sub measurements soon. I’ve never used REW before but I have my microphone and a 600w ported sub (which is not what I intend to use but should be sufficient for now, from what I...
