thanks @mahgister I hope you are enjoying the music whichever ways, maybe nearfield listening with speakers is an option too!
Subwoofer
Looking to add a subwoofer to my 2 channel system. Problem arises in that there is only one location give or take 2 feet in all directions where the subwoofer can be.
Very large untreated open concept room. 14 ft tray ceilings, about 30 ft by 20 ft. Hardwood floors. Serious WAF. Maybe one day will have dedicated room but for now should I wait, make it "work" with eq, accept the limitations of the location, hope it works?
Suggestions please. Maybe a particular brand addresses this.
Modwright integrated, vintage Thorens, Innuos streamer, Kef R3. Kef LS50. Usher 530. Watkins. Ryan R2.

I can assure you the Akg K340 are now optimized and so good i will never go back to the difficult task to tune a room... I dont need because the three dimensional "out of the head" soundfield of my headphone beat my past speakers or rival them ... The K340 is unique headphone the most different designed headphone ever compared to any other... Read about it...
My best to you and your family...

To have one to three subwoofers work to their integration’l potential at your listening position its imperative to preform the subwoofer crawl to map out your rooms bass mode standing waves (optimum subwoofer positions). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV3oLLMgS-M Another excellent option would be to look into ’distributed bass array’s’, Swarm. A reluctant suggestion would be -6dB sub-bass speaker. Their dramatic frequency roll off may not excite your rooms modes, expanding location possibilities. Hopefully still provide a modicum of lowish frequency reinforcement. Good luck with your search. |
