Amp for 4pi speakers
Hello
Thanks to Wayne, I've built a set of 4pi speakers a few years ago.
However, the room acoustics of our living room are far from ideal.
We have an L-shaped room and this is the best aesthetic speaker setup:
The 4pi speakers aren't toed-in, ...

Re: The shape of the room
The ideal room is outdoors, because there are no walls or ceiling to act as reflectors. Obviously, that's not an option so next best thing would be a very large, well-damped room having randomly contoured walls with no large flat surfaces. That's proba...

Re: The shape of the room
Square rooms aren't good because room modes are strong. You would definitely benefit from multisubs - in any small room actually - but even more so if the room is square.

Re: Sound for small gym
Room modes are less a problem in large rooms. The bigger problem in gymnasiums is the hard, reflective surfaces on all sides. It makes a midrange reflection problem, and a lot of echo. The directivity of the speakers will help, and that's sometimes as...

Re: Two Subwoofers
Outside and inside are very different.
Outside, you want all sources to combine coherently. This means you want sound sources grouped together, and their acoustic centers aligned.
When two subs are placed at each ends of a stage, bass suffers from...

Re: Small-room acoustics
The problem in small rooms isn't sound pressure level, because that's easy enough to fix simply by turning the volume down.
The problem is room modes; Regions that have no bass at some frequencies adjacent to regions with too much bass at some freque...

Re: Subwoofer Setup
That's great to hear, Barry. Thanks for the feedback!
As you and I have discussed, I'm a big proponent of multisubs but I consider the flanking sub aspect to be an additional requirement. I think that distributed multisubs by themselves only solve p...
