Subwoofer for music, how low?
Contrary to what has been said to the OP on the topic of implementing a distributed bass array (Swarm), the positioning of four subs should not be symmetrical, but asymmetrical. Symmetrical positioning of subs only increases the chance that room ... 
USB Input causes noise across whole amplifier - Musical Fidelity M5si
I have the Musical Fidelity M6si, so I assume the 5si is similar with regards to USB functionality. From what is says in the manual, I would check that the driver your computer (either Mac or PC) is using is compatible and current and that the co...
