Material to place under Down firing Sub ?


My down firing sub is in my finished basement . The floor is concrete covered with industrial type carpteing. Has anyone ever tried wood or other materials under their downfiring sub ? Are some types of wood more effective than others ? THX

Altering the distance between a down-loaded driver and the floor will change several aspects of performance. This includes but is not limited to frequency response, bass extension and "apparent speed". By playing with this aspect of the installation, one can fine tune the sound to their liking or for flattest response. Sean
