+1 @georgehifi — I made the opposite move and went from having my system on the second floor to the basement with concrete floor. Bass was unruly and tough to control on the second floor. I ended up putting marble slabs under my speakers, which helped more than anything else, but you may need to put additional footers on the slab if that alone isn’t enough. My speakers sound SO much better in the basement — totally balanced with better imaging/soundstage. I’d keep them down there if you possibly can.
Moving speakers from downstairs to upstairs, degrading ?
Hi ev1, HOW MUCH will I be expecting the sound quality be degrading if moving my Floorstanding SF Elipsa SE from downstairs (carpet on top hard cement slap) to upstairs 2nd floor (carpet on top of particle board). Thank you
