Hey Jason thanks for helping me out. I'm back at college so it's harder to find a time and place to tune the system. Fortunately, there's a shop that has an RTA that charges $35/h. I talked to a friend though and he said they really don't know what they're doing, so I'm hesitant to take it to them. Basically if they don't let me do it myself then I'll just tell them exactly what I want. Play left speaker, smooth the curve out, and then match the right speaker with it. Then, ask them to show me both the left and right speaker's response curve. After that I can play with groups of bands to get the curve I want.

Before I spend the money of getting someone else to do it, I think I might try to do it myself again. I mean I did spend 50 bucks on this meter. After my last post, I tried it again using the integrated average function over a 30 second interval. I still got a variance of 3-4 dB's on some frequencies though. I may try a different approach and just use the max values of everything band and see how precise it is. It may just be precisely inaccurate (if that makes since). Which is fine because as long as the difference in dB is correct then I don't care if it's higher or lower than it's supposed to be.
