Paradigm Sig Servo 15" and Velodyne SMS-1


I'm trying to dial in my subwoofer for home theater and for two channel music.

I finally found a good spot in the room for the sub where bass can be heard very well from the listening position.

For some reason, I think the SMS-1 would help, but maybe I don't need that? From reading the discussions returned from a search I've learned there is software out there that would do measurements so I can have the cool graphs to analyze.

My questions are:
1) What will the SMS-1 buy me that I could use?
2) Can I use the spk1 out of my C500t using a Y and connect that to the RCA inputs of the sub and also use the XLR sub line out of the Classe to connect to the sub, then toggle the sub input switch depending on if I'm listening to 2 ch. music or TV/Movies?

I really want to dial in the sub with all the adjustments available as I'm wanting to buy a JL Fathom 212 at a fantastic price, but the reality is I don't even know what this sig servo can do because its never been dialed in properly!

Thanks for the detailed information, Marty!

So if I skipped using the sub for 2 channel, the SMS-1 unit would do me well for home theater/TV?
