The first time with subs was not great. I got into home theatre once (not sure why, maybe I hit my head and thought it was a good idea haha) but the sub was too big, too bulky and ported. It never really meshed with HT or audio. The 2nd time was strictly for stereo and it went together much better. I had a better designed sub, non ported, better acoustics in another room and it sounds superb. I think my planning and integration was better. The 2nd sub was Rythmik and the first was SVS. Also I ditched all the advice that stated "you must tune the sub to your room acoustics by measuring and adjusting and measuring some more". I did my tuning by ear and it sounds fantastic.
Your sub experience: Easy or hard?
For those of us with subwoofers, I'm curious whether you thought integrating it was easy or difficult. That's it.
Of course, lots of DBA people will chime in. No problem but please ask that everyone stay on topic. If you want to discuss all the pro's and cons of DBA take it to a brand new thread. Thank you.
The focus here is just to ask how many people had easy or difficult times and what you thought was the difference.
