Hey guys,

Looking to get a device to measure TS parameters of subs. Is this a good device and program or is there something else you'd recommend?

I have a DATS v1 and it works well.   They are pretty sensitive measurement devices, so some diligence and attention to detail is required if you want to get good results, but they will do what you want.  

In addition to measuring the T/S parameters they can also do impedance sweeps, which can be very useful for box optimization.  It can show if you are getting things like panel resonances, standing waves, of if there are any leaks.  I don't use mine a lot, but when I do use it its very helpful and it gives me info I can't get pretty much any other way.
