| Lots of bass at walls, lack of bass in center of room/listening position Delay and phase in reference to a subwoofer are the same thing. Delay in this instance is the more accurate description of what the control is performing.You have an unconventional listening space which may require an unconventional solution. Try ... | |
| JBL 4367 shoutiness remedies? Listen to Duke, he knows what he is talking about.Also, don't overlook room acoustics as others have said, they make a far larger impact on your sound than you might think.Here is a company that I believe Duke has recommended in the past that may ... | |
| Emotional rollercoaster I don't believe high end audio is a sham but it is very complex. The first question is, what is better sound? I'm guessing it means something different to each and everyone of us. If you can imagine your perfect audio system in your mind, what wou... | |
| Will this amp trick work for increasing bass performance? Robert,I believe you are on the right track. You probably don't need a sub unless you are listening to EDM or at concert level volume. Focal recommends an amp up to 500 watts, so depending on how much bass you are looking for I would get an amp as... | |
| Speaker size and bass You could try tone control.I've heard great things about the Schiit Loki.It's fairly inexpensive and would cost you maybe $25 bucks to try it if you didn't like it.https://www.schiit.com/products/loki | |
| Blown driver Have blown several speakers in my day. IME reconing is far cheaper than a new speaker as long as there is a recone kit that fits your basket.If your other speakers sound OK then they are OK and no need to replace them.I suspect some type of electr... | |
| Degritter brand ultrasonic record cleaner @restock if you are still around, I would love to hear your comparison of the Degritter to Clearaudio double matrix.Thanks | |
| Do we ask too much of our audio systems? I think that you can achieve a live sound experience with a home system and I don't believe you have to spend a fortune to do it.As with anything you do need the proper tools and don't forget how much your room affects your sound. | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? Has anyone directly compared Rel offerings to JTR, PSA or RhythmikI have a REL S5/SHO and a Rythmik F12SE in my system. They both cycle low enough and are loud enough for my needs which is 2 ch. audio. The main difference between them is the notes... | |
| What would you do if items from Ebay had beenlost? Contact the post office via USPS.com.When the carrier delivers the package they scan the bar code on the package, that scan also records the gps location of the delivery so the post office can find out exactly where they left it. They would still ... | |
| SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass? I thought that the test that showed the most deviation was when he used the packing foam as the mounting device.It is my understanding that a ported cabinet is a tuned cabinet where the designer is using the cabinet vibrations and internal air pre... | |
| SVS Subwoofer Isolation feet. Will I lose bass? I added the SVS isolation feet to my sealed SVS SB4000 subs a few months ago. I did not experience any noticeable change in output.The reduced db output in the video has nothing to do with the feet or the flooring, it is because the ports are bein... | |
| More Power or use subwoofer to boost bass for music The information I found on their website is that the low pass filter doesn't apply to LFE.I could be mistaken here, but I believe that REL is using the low pass filter in LFE mode, it's just not adjustable. It is permanently set at 120hz. | |
| More Power or use subwoofer to boost bass for music Hi Duke, thanks for the suggestion on Auralex SubDude. I wonder how they compare to the SVS SoundPath Isolator that I just ordered.I have the SVS isolators under my SVS subs and they did help tighten up the bass a bit. My results were fairly sub... | |
| What 4 subwoofers to buy? With a four sub DBA or even a three sub DBA for that matter any decent sub will work. What type of music you listen to and how loud you like it as well as room size will dictate which models would best suit your needs. Any company that manufacture... |
