Re: Damping of concrete backwall.
Hi KimAre you looking for room treatment for frequencies handled by the subwoofer or treatment for fullrange speakers? I think the biggest problem concerning bass frequencies in the home is room modes. Standing wave modes are impossible to rid of in any r...

Re: Trying to understand bass "quality"....
At Honda they tested the sound quality of variuos cars by having listeners listen to sounds and rate the sound while looking at a picture of the car. The correlation tracked the picture NOT the actual sound. Perception is a very dangerous thing in audio....
