Sometimes when I measure I have what I believe is clipping (based on result graph). I turn volume down just a bit and it seems to resolve. I'm fairly certain it's a subwoofer, but it doesn't seem to loud or distorted during measurement process.
Is there an easy way to look at measurement result and determine offending speaker(s)? I've listened to the resulting sweep file, and it always sounds fine to me.
 
It will be the one that has the highest spl in some frequency. If your sub causes clipping it’s either the microphone or the ad converter that clips.
