I've been working on integrating a Velodyne Optimum-8 sub with my NHT Classic Three's in a very difficult room. Please take a look and let me know your thoughts. I'm not done playing but this is as good as I could get tonight.The blue line is in room at listening position with no sub
The red line is 0-phase w/ 40hz crossover
The green line is 270-phase w/ 40hz crossover
All measurements have been corrected for the errors in the RatShack SPL meter.
The "green-line" measurement is yielding pretty good sounding results right now.

- Forget the rough graph with too few data points -- listen (to a slow sinewave sweep or bass tone burst test tones) - Richard BassNut Greene 08:28:52 01/13/09 (6)
- I understand - and will try - VynylTap 09:23:57 01/13/09 (5)
- The Rat Shack Meter IS most useful for bass -- most people are clueless about "error corrections" - Richard BassNut Greene 09:11:53 01/14/09 (2)
- so really, the graph should look more like this... - VynylTap 14:29:39 01/14/09 (1)
