Hi folks,
I have a Dali Zensor 5.1.2 setup with an E-9F sub. The room is small and square 12' x 12' x 7.5' which I understand isn't ideal. However, it is a dedicated room so I have the options to place everything in the best place possible.
I have run Audyssey and think everything is generally pretty good. The only thing bugging me is the sub. I set all the crossovers to 80Hz and the speakers are set at 'small'. I set the bass volume at 12 o'clock and the crossover knob to max. After running Audyssey the sub had a level setting of -12db (the other speakers were around -7.5ish).
I understand this is the max which means the sub vol is too loud. I reduced it about a third and run it again and got the same result.
Being new to HT, I'm not absolutely sure how good bass is supposed to sound. To me it just sounds bassy.
It is in the corner along the front about 1' away from each wall, so i might try the bass crawl thing. Do I need to set the volume lower still until I get an acceptable reading after Audyssey.
Thanks in advance, these forums and Genes videos have been invaluable.
