Downfiring subs on carpet?


I have a down firing REL sub on order and was wondering as I'm looking 
at my overall setup. I have a short pile rug under my entire setup. Should 
I leave everything as is or would you recommend a hard surface i.e. a 
large ceramic tile between the sub and rug?

Thanks for any guidance.

I recommend installing one of these Auralex Acoustics SubDude Subwoofer Acoustic Isolation Platform underneath your sub. Very effective in reducing floor borne vibrations and helps tighten the bass.
