I always recommend TrueRTA, upgraded to at least the 1/3rd octave level, as a very accurate way to analyze the true nitty-gritty of what's going on with a sound system. The new RadioShack meter has a line out jack which allows use of it's mic, without the bass rolloff, for analysis. Seeing the entire audio spectrum at once allows very accurate fine tuning in positioning of the subwoofer, in addition to the mains and surrounds.
TrueRTA Website Altec,
The white noise thing caught me off guard as well when I was digging into the old posts on the forum. I think I will have to use my friend's spectrum analyzer to determine where the correct settings should be. Thanks for the info.
