Just as a follow-up to my own question, I just received the latest issue of TAS which has a review on a DSP device for subs called the DSPeaker. Based on similar technology being used in subs that have integrated DSP feedback devices, like Velodyne, it is a $350 black box for use with subwoofers without that option. Anyway, the article directly addresses the common problem I'm having of a suckout caused my room modes in the lower regions below 100hz, and then between 100-200hz. The concept of electronic mode correction is suggested as having potential benefit to this problem. The author does report major success with this particular device (not applicable to my particular arrangement as my subs are integral and not standalone), as with the more expensive PARC device. Duke, the author, Robert E. Greene, does mention in passing how effective the potential of your Swarm system might be, towards the end of that article.
On a further note and query, I've just borrowed a better mic to do a bit more in-depth analysis on my laptop (otherwise was relying on the mic in my iPhone and StudioSix software). Can anyone recommend good RTA FFT software for Mac that is freeware or that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?
