SPL meter subwoofer tuning

I have tried many different placements for 2 Von Schweikert VRS/1 subwoofers, however I still cannot seem to find a happy medium. I have heard purchasing an SPL meter will be very useful in setting up these subs in stereo. Anyone out there use an SPL meter, if so can you give me some feedback on how to use and how much help it will be and if it's worth spending the money on. I do have a disc with pink noise for a subwoofer. Thanks

You'll need a test cd to generate various frequencies. The problem is unless you have an EQ you are only left with crossover frequency, volume, placement and probably phase.

How do the subs sound now? Why are you not satisfied?
