Ok, so I made some changes last night, but didn’t take a pic. I’ll take one as soon as I get home, or I’ll have my wife take one. What I did was moved my receivers to the left corner, that allowed me to space out the towers much more. I did a little toe in as well. I then put the subs in the middle, next to the towers on the inside. This looks better and I’m getting much better soundstage from the towers.
I did run YPAO once. I’ll be running REW tonight. With the size of these subs and all the furniture in that room, I’m limited on options to put the subs. They do rock though!!!!!
What are Bass traps used for? In the ceiling corner of the room above the receivers, it’s rattling really hard. It almost sounded like a distorted speaker at first, but it’s just the house rattling. I think it’s the actual siding of the house. I’ll check it out further when I get home. My son was on a walk with his girlfriend and they were across the street. He said from across the street, he couldn’t hear the music, but the gutters in the front were rattling like crazy. He walked to our side of the street and the rattling was louder and he could start to hear the music. I guess I could use some blue putty or double sided tape to help with the gutters and the siding. Besides that upper corner, it sounds clean in the living room.
Watched Underground 6 last night based on
@shadyJ Review of the JTR sub he just did. Man you can feel that bass. I also am definitely getting what I assume is infrasonic bass. It’s not audible, but you can feel it on certain notes. Insane poop. I used to be a bass head in car audio. Still have a JL W710 in a high output box in the basement (going in sons car soon) , but even in a larger room, this bass is nuts.
2 questions real quick. My receiver is lower end (Yamaha RZV-681), I’m looking to buy a mini dsp, is it compatible with this? I know it’s not separate sub outs. Also, should I get the normal one or get the 2x4HD?
Also, I was looking at bass shakers for my couch. With these subs, they rock the poop out of my couch. I assume at this point they won’t add much, but wanted everyone’s thoughts.
The Fluance signature bookshelves that used to be my LR, are too big to hang in the back of my room for my rear surrounds. They would hang over the lip considerably. Right now I have Polk T10’s hanging there. How much would an upgrade there make a difference? Does anyone have a suggestion, I need them smaller.
Thanks for everything guys.
