Nearfield Monitors? Monitoring in General?

Of course, I'm now left with one question.
The Bluesky features an independantly controlable sub, and I'd like to get as flat a frequency response as possible.

Is there a tool for generating a fixed amplitude sine wave where I can vary the frequency?

Or can anyone else recommend a tool for testing the linearity of my monitor response.

PS: The Mackie Big Knob rules!

good one Wayne

i discovered it lately, I can hear till 15 kHz!

Cjw, you know you also need acoustic measurement equipment, to feed back the info?

Oh cool, have to have a play when I've fixed my computer. It's currently too unstable to really do anything serious music wise and has been since the day I built it five years ago

hubird: acoustic measurement equipment: will an SM58 linked back into the Pulsar via an A16 Ultra do the trick? If you're thinking of something else, please let me know.

I WAS just planning to use my ears...

an sm58 is not an accurate measuring instrument. your ears will do if you follow the instructions that come with the speaks.
