I wasn't sure where to post this but here it goes:
Can I use a OmniMic to help me figure out the best spot to place my subwoofer? The tool has quite a bit of capabilities so I figure I should be able to. Thanks for reading/responding.
Yes, you just need some software. Good choices are Room Eq Wizard (REW) and Holme Impulse, both of which are free downloads.
OmniMic Software
So the software supplied with the OmniMic won't allow me to do this?

Oh, you're talking about the Omnimic Precision Measurement System, not just the mic itself. Which version? Please be more specific.
The manual doesnt describe but a good way is to set your sub about where you will sit, then measure frequency response measurements (1/6th octave smoothed, blended window) while you move the mic around to prospective places you could put the sub. Find the best place for under 200hz, put the sub in that place. Then, if an option, try fine adjusting the seating position (moving the mic to nearby spots to find the best). Dont have the seat back against a wall, though, youll never get the mids and highs sounding right there.
Best is if you can use 2 or 3 subs run in mono, distributed around, then youd likely find more seats that work well.
