But it's a good one. One of the most interesting things about it is this is the first article I've seen that states that getting the sub up off the floor is a must.

I'm working on the math for my room, but it's a bit odd shaped, so REW will probably still be required to get the final tuning done. But for someone setting up a sub (or subs) in a new room, this should get you into the general area of where the subs need to be.

Having tried positioning the subs based on this article, I can say it works. I've got about 3 db more at 20 Hz and over 20 db more a 14 Hz.
