What is the best way to test the performance of my Sub?
I have recently finished a subwoofer for a friend’s home theater. I have had my subs professionally tested in the past but my friend doesn’t want to spend the money on this analysis, so I was wondering what is the best way to do this in my home with simple tools? IE: computer tone generator and a DB meter… is it even possible to get accurate results with these types of tools. If it is possible to get accurate results in this simple manner, how do I do it? Could some of you guys help me out? Step by step instructions would be nice.
Thanks a lot,

Note: I am probably going to get the funding in a few months to build a sub of rather large size and weight. I am using a self-designed enclosure witch if all goes well will provide amazing results, and I will be doing in step by step on DIYAudio!
