Velodyne SMS-1 EQ/RTA is the way to go. You can smooth out the bass peaks/valleys and when the wife gets home, put it in night mode in which reduces output up to(user adjustable) 20%-90%!
Is a subwoofer 'overkill?'
i just bought a subwoofer hereabouts. The deal want well and i hooked it up. i can certainly 'hear' it. My wife is agast.
Yes, even at the lowest settings it sounds a bit loud.
Thoughts. Should I save it for movies? Turn it off when she gets home?
Note; This is a woman who can hear changes I make when I roll my tubes, better than I can. She know even when I don't tell her.
Bummer: the wife has zero appreciation of high-end audio, but hears better than me.
