I started a thread in the subwoofer forum asking about an appropriate subwoofer for a portable room analyzer kit.
The more I searched, I am now interested in possibly using something like a clapper device to generate sound to be captured with REW for room analysis.
Here's an investigation of using such a device.

There is a company called Larson Davis that makes a commercial one, the BAS006. But I can't find where I can buy one of those. I want to make a few prototypes, clap them and use REW to measure the response I get. Can probably do that outside so I can get reasonable results. If one of these things will generate a good response, then it might be as good or better than a sub. Certainly more portable!
Then I found this one, which looks a bit better.
In addition, I also posted an old thread about building Limp Mass Absorbers, which is very useful. I'll leave that here as well in case it helps anyone else.
