new subwoofer help

BTW, how to crossover your sub-woofer(s) to your woofers would be also important, as I wrote recently here.

I will setup my new pb 2000 pro on saturday again, As i was having null isuues as my room is small 12.75x11x10. I tried room simulator REW do you find this graph best and flat as beyond 120hz it does not matter for subwoofer

Please make sure that the dB range displayed in your SPL graphs (maximum SPL shown vs minimum SPL) does not exceed ~50dB

You can customize this with the Limits button, or you can hold down the middle mouse button, then move the mouse.

though i watched many videos regarding rew but they were old videos and were using asio4all . Now i am on latest version and i am using flexasio. Can you tell all settings how do i do these all. I am using pc with nvidia gpu and umik-1. Hdmi cable going from gpu to denon hdmi in. Also when i tried once it said level is low. How do i increase mic gain in windows 10 and how much ? i dont want to damage speakers

No need to use ASIO.

Instead, use Java EXCL. It's bit-perfect as well, more stable and less of a pain to set up.

When using bit-perfect input, there is no way to increase the UMIK's mic gain.

difference between the two?

difference between the two?

Java EXCL is Wasapi Exclusive built natively into REW. It supports multi-device I/O out of the box and is more stable overall.

With its addition, workarounds like ASIO4All and FlexASIO became plainly unnecessary.

Dirac live cannot do more than manual EQ, it can only save you the time and effort required to learn it.

Best results will be achieved using a combination of smart placement, room treatment, and EQ.

Equalization, meaning the process of manipulating frequency response.

if you see in the pic subwoofer is 2 feet from back wall does this mean i can put the subwoofer sticking to back wall? as sub depth is 23 inches itself.

I don't know exactly how REW's Room Sim takes subwoofer cabinet dimensions into account (that's a question for @JohnPM!), but I honestly doubt it matters much.

These kinds of simulators are not built for inch-level precision.

The position shown is to the sub's acoustic centre, which REW treats as being in the middle of the front face of the sub's representation. For an actual source it is typically close to or a little behind the driver dustcap.

so suppose svs pb 2000 pro is 23 inches in depth means front cone is 23 inches from back of cabinet. so ?

 

[hardcore_gamer99]

can you help with checklist before i run dirac on windows 10?
1. In denon sound settings in windows 10 do i need to set 5.1 and full range front or it does NOT matter?
2. DO i have to connect my nvidia card to denon with hdmi only or both has to be on same wifi as well?
3.should i 1st set speaker cross at 70hz before dirac or it does it automatically? I have full suite full bandwidth + bass control
4. Also under sound settings in denon when we press movie button on remote which mode to select stereo /multi channel stereo or what?
5. low pass filter for lfe in denon is 120hz default. good?
