    Default VLSI Anti-Mode 8033 anyone?

    Anyone have any experience integrating the VLSI Anti-Mode 8033 auto EQ device with a Rhythmik sub?

    I started to go down the path of REW, but I'm not sure that I have the time/energy to make a hobby out of it!

    The 8033 looks appealing on paper.

    I do....works great.

    REW is good to have for taking measurements, but you will still need something to do the EQing.

    If your room is treated fairly well (acoustic panels) will there still be a noticeable difference using the Antimode. The room is small- 10'x12'x8'.

    Have you taken FR measurements of the subwoofer in the room?

    Unless the acoustic panels are designed for bass (ie. hugely thick) they won't do much for bass response.

    I'm finally getting my feet wet with REW measurements using a calibrated mic, USB soundcard, etc. Below is one example of one listening position (D15SE+Sierras crossed at 70hz+Audyssey). Would my situation benefit from an 8033 or BFD? Seems I don't have any profound room issues. Love to hear some opinions!

    That actually looks pretty good. Audessey does a good job EQing the bass, I wouldn't use another filter after it. Multiple EQ/filters after one another is not a good idea IMO.
