Re: Room size effect
Larger. Room modes are stronger in smaller rooms. But by saying "larger," I mean really large, like several thousand square feet. Small and medium size rooms (like one would expect in a home) are improved with damping material. Framed d...

Re: The bass levels
Wow! This basically sums up everything I have been putting my mind to task on. I think I will just have to get multiple subwoofers for that matter since I've never been able to fully optimize the sound in my room.

Re: The bass levels
Equalizing the bass is not the best way to solve the problem. The best way is to use multiple subwoofers. The reason is bass problems are almost always caused by room modes, not by the subwoofers. Room modes are caused by self-interence, interactions ...

Re: How many subwoofers
More is better. Place them around the room to smooth room modes. Going from one to two makes a huge difference. If you have two, I suggest making them flanking subs. Two to three makes a big difference in smoothness too, especially in the deepest b...

Re: 4 pi speaker plans please
Answers below your questions: I've been lusting after these for a while, but I have some questions. How far apart and how high off of the floor should these be ideally? I would like to make a custom console/tv stand combo that contains them. Set...

Re: 4 Pi and 3 pi subwoofer
Answers by numbers: 1. Will the design be compromised if the port is moved to the rear and the horn is centered above the woofer? Is having the horn off-center actually facilitating this design? It's just not so aesthetically pleasing to me. If you...

Re: Mono "flanking sub"
When we talk about phase anomalies (time domain) or when we talk about peaks and dips in the amplitude response (frequency domain), we're essentially talking about flip sides of the same coin. I've always been more focused on the frequency domain becaus...

Re: Midbass slam
I have not measured my room, in a way that I can look at a graph, but I have run sweeps and hz test tones. I had discovered a huge null at 70hz (throughout the center of the room) and another at around 150hz. I have since added considerable acoustic...

Re: Midbass slam
Sub bass frequency' s are many tens of feet long, so 5ft from the speakers shouldnt make any difference. In my opinion I would only use sealed for subs and you need drivers with huge magnets to control the cone, lack of control leads to boom in my experie...
