Acoustics and room measurements

[jimbones]

What method should I use for doing room measurements (RTA and pink noise or frequency response and sweeps). I want to find the best location for my subwoofers and listening position. Thanks.

Yea a good question that no one knows the answer to, or they just don't want to answer it. Funny.

I say RTA. At least you have an answer, lol.

I've been told that pink noise is easier on your speakers, and for frequencies that a sub might handle, I've had very similar results to using sine sweeps. I've seen the difference about 2kHz, if memory serves (and it might not -- but it's somewhere in the upper mids).

Omnimic has features for measuring frequency response, room reverberation, and Bass Decay, all of which are handy tools for setting up your room.
