Thanks guys. Will look into treatment and DSP.I do plan to move to a bigger space in 2-3 years so thats why I have the NS5000. But I agree totally a smaller speaker might be better. Although not sure it would be better for bass impact?

I would be super interested to see what you guys think about the U1 vs DCS bridge.

Here is another comparison, this time with left sub, 2 subs and no subs and a bit more smoothing (1/12) to make this more clear.www.diabolicaldesign.net/smooth.jpg

@millercarbon thanks man, I will play with it.Oh and I forgot to measure the front wall to the front baffle (I was doing to the back of the speaker). My speakers are 28 inches away from the front wall.I am gonna try to play with the toe, lateral m...
