A lot of good answers. Sounds like a room problem. Two basic problems, speakers not coupling to room walls or bass cancelation based on room size relative to listening area. If moving your speakers don't do the trick, then try adding a sub. Check dealer for return policy. A single sub should provide enough punch and accuracy to satisfy most tastes.
More Power or use subwoofer to boost bass for music
Hi, just want to know if anyone can offer their opinions on how to boost the bass when listening to 2 channel music.
I just got a pair of B&W 804 D3 and would like to get more bass out of the speakers. I remember the bass was pretty punchy when I heard it in the dealer showroom, but I don't seem to get that in my setup. I currently have Parasound A31 power amp with 250 watts per channel.
So the question is whether I should get a more power amp, or add subwoofer to my 2 channel music. I'm a little bit of a purist and would prefer not to use a subwoofer for music, but I'm open to this option.
I would definitely appreciate if anyone can share their experience/opinion. Thanks very much.
