Yes break-in period might help but what you described about your room layout, it might be the culprit. I dont know if this possible in your situation but have you tried moving your system so the sound is projected into the kitchen? At the current position, do you have a third wall behind you?
More Bass
I recently purchase a pair of Legacy Signature speakers from an on-line retailer. I purchased them unheard, but I did my due diligence in researching them and I would have thought with the 7" woofers and a rated frequency response of 22-30K hz, there would have been a bit more bass (although there is a couple of tunes I have played where there is some bass that is really deep and sounds all garbled, very weird, but I just won’t listen to those songs,I guess).
I bought floor standers so I wouldn’t have to deal with the hassle that goes along with setting up subwoofers, also with all the space they take up and the negative WAF that goes along with them.
They are a little bright on the top end, but I’ll blame that on my room, it probably needs more treating, just limited on funds at the moment.
If I thought I needed subwoofers, I'm thinking I might have bought a pair of Fritz bookshelfs and a pair of subs, for probably less than the Sigs.
The price of Legacy subs is over the top for me, so do you think there is any way to get more bass without subs or are there any subs that are a bit smaller, that might do the trick as I am pretty limited on space (and funds as previously mentioned!) Thanks

@highend64 - it would be awesome to do what you suggest, but we bought this house because it has a view, putting the speaker in the window, might just not go over to well. I'm just going to have to figure this out. Thanks @blisshifi - OK, I will start a new thread with some sub-woofer questions! Thx |
My speakers are similar to yours in specs anyway and since I'm a bass lover and rarely use my sub, I just use the tone controls on my pre-amp and get all the bass I want and can handle. Problem solved. I personally don't believe in speaker "break-in" and think anything will change sound wise but know a lot of people do. |
