Use the Excel spreadsheet named Subwoofer Frequency Response link provided above, which will plot the frequency response of the subwoofer from 11.2 Hz to 100.8 Hz. Input your raw direct read values from your SPL meter into the green band of frequencies in the Raw SPL Data worksheet, and the Frequency Response worksheet will plot the FR of the subwooferSVSound Setup & Use of PEQAdjusting The PEQ Identify the largest/widest peak in the response and target it for reduction with the PEQ control. When making adjustments to the PEQ control, there is no need to re-plotthe entire FR for interim adjustments - simply re-plotthe affected section of the curve to verify your PEQ adjustments are having the desired effect. When you are done making adjustments, you can re-plotthe entire frequency response to obtain a final curve STA-800D/1000DEquipped SubsSetup & Use of PEQ Set the Frequency control to the approximate center frequency of the largest peak. Set the Q control to 14.4 narrowest bandwidth, and set the Level control to -6dB. Play the test tones again and re-measureand re- plot the affected portion of the FR curve and visually evaluate your results. Simple trial/error will then allow you to adjust all three controls to shape the PEQ cut to achieve the desired effectAdvanced Features Room Compensation Room CompensationSVSound Terms & ConditionsSVSound 6420 Belmont Avenue, Girard, Ohio Fax STA-800D/1000DEquipped Subs
