Elevating subwoofer about two feet off the floor


Acoustic Sciences Corp recommends elevating the subwoofer about 2' off the floor http://www.acousticsciences.com/products/subtrap

see photo in link above ... has anyone tried raising their subs that high off the floor? Did it sound better?

Interesting find. I can see this working with subs that are either light in weight or not constructed tightly-so that you can control the 'boomyness'.
I wish I could try a pair with my Vandy 2w's and see if they make a difference, but I have already spent too much on my stereo.
I guess the only way to know for sure is to buy a pair and try them with subwoofers. Who know what kind of dampingĀ 
Tweak, the bass trap has damping materials, which I believe would cause it to affect the sound, rather than simply elevating it.
