Re: Multiple Subwoofers
Crawlspaces are a problem because the chamber underneath the floor forms a resonator that can cause peaky response. It will suckout some sub frequencies and leave others very loud. Other than that, if you have a concrete foundation, I'd say the floorin...

Re: Multiple Subwoofers
I agree in all aspects except the points of asymmetry and number of corner sources. I realize you know my position in this matter but I'll restate just in case other readers don't.
There are two schools of thought on this, one championed by Todd Welt...

Re: Multiple Subwoofers
Multiple subs are the only way to go in my opinion. It's done more to smooth out room modes than to increase SPL. The idea is to place them around the room in different places so self-interference that is destructive from one sub is filled in by anothe...

JBL 2226 Usage
I meant to say this earlier, but then got busy with my morning things and just clicked "send". I wonder if what you're hearing (or missing) at low levels is a Fletcher-Munson thing. I could understand that, 'cause the deep bass needs more vol...

Cornerhorn Ruminations
Nice looking midhorns! Congratulations!
We will have the midhorn flat pack kits back on the shopping cart in about a month or six weeks (finally!) I met with the cabinetmaker on Sunday and we discussed it at length.

Multisubs
Next step then (in my opinion) is to getcha some subs. I love the sound of my four π speakers even without subs, but adding them puts them really over the top. It's really about smoothing the response as much as it is about increasing extension.
One...

Multisub explained
I'd probably generally suggest crossing subs below 100Hz but in smaller rooms, sometimes a little higher crossover is merited for specific setups. This is part of the multisub approach, which distributes low frequency sound sources. By "low freque...

Re: 2-Pi Tower floorbounce
Yes, it does. You can correct it with flanking subs, otherwise, it's there. You can't have a midwoofer up off the ground without having a self-interference notch. All the single driver speakers, mini-monitors on stands and tower speakers have it. The...
