Measuring speakers


Does anyone know how to measure speakers' frequency response like they do in magazines? I'd like to confirm my speakers' lo frequency specifications to adjust with a subwoofer.

You would need some sophisticated equipment and a suitible environment to replicate testing as done in the mag's.

As a pratical matter even if you could it wouldn't make much difference in actual use since the room and speaker placement makes a huge difference.

Buy a test disc and a Radio Shack sound level meter and use it to set up the sub's and integrate their response with the main speakers. Easier than doing it by ear.
