I did think about it, and it is an interesting take on it.

Yeah: pulsed or gated is how the software I use measures it. And yeah: averaged across 3 locations. Not just 1.

One stupid question I have, if this is really true, then that dude Russel Hershelsmann (bad spelling, I know) in SGHT is not correct, and even some of the white papers over on Harman International's site about sub placement aren't correct either.

I like the idea of doing short *and* long duration measurements and maybe trying to find the best compromise in terms of what peaks to go after though.

Good info. I need to think about this some more...


> Pop Quiz: Why would pulsed/gated tests be less effective at lower frequencies in normal home environments?

If the time duration of the test isn't long enough, not a good thing? (I.e., low freqs equal longer wavelengths so you'd need more time for low freqs vs high for just 1 wavelength.)
