If you don't find the bass sweep on DVE, it may be the Avia disc. I have too many calibration discs--basically every one I've ever heard of I've bought.

The test tone from the receiver is broadband noise, it covers the entire range reproduced by the sub. Without a real-time audio spectrum analyzer you wouldn't know if one part of the spectrum is accentuated or attenuated over others. But a sweep will play one frequency at a time, so you can hear how the room responds to each.
