Setting up a Subwoofer
There are many threads on subwoofers so I thought I would offer my experiences in how to set one up. I have a Rel and after many failed efforts to intergrate I called Sumiko who walked me through it.
Keeps subs out of the corners and if it is foward firing put it on a stand. You wont beleive how much it clears up the boom.
Crossovers dont cut off perfectly. So if it set for 25hz there is going to be some bleed through to 26hz and 27hz. Use this to your adavntage for intergration. Set the crossover a hair below your mains and turn the volume up on the sub. This gives you the most punch and more bleed through to blend them nicely.
If the sub puts out the same quality bass as the mains and is set up properly it will never make it sound worse.
Any other sub tips is appreciated.
