Seriously though, it does make it easier to see, you can probably get down to a half Hz in accuracy pretty easily.

reedal Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 OK, good. Here is how you can check your tuning frequency, I call The Salt Method: You need some table salt/sugar and a tone generator, you can use a tone generator app for your phone. 1. Put a pinch of salt on your subwoofer cones. 2. Play a tone through your subs at moderate to low volume, you should see the salt dancing all over the place 3. Raise and lower the tone until you find the frequency where the salt lays still on the cone (or moves the least), that's your tuning frequency. I'm going to try that out. That's pretty neat, didn't know that the least excursion was tuning frequency. Good info to know.
