I just received this sub. My room is 11x11 only. I have denon x4800h sony oled Dali opticon 2 FLR and pansonic 4k player. I did subwoofer crawl 3 times. When i put it randomly between fronts it was complete NULL no bass in my sitting position. Then did crawl 2nd time deep bass was good but mid bass was zero. My settings are LFE and crossover to 80hz. In 1 place hollywood movie like spectre opening scene deep bass is good but same place my indian bluray does not give good bass there. Wtf is happening? I cant belive pb 2000pro not performing in small room it must give chest pounding bass
OVERALL I AM NOT HAPPY
Did you use bass sweep tones from YouTube when doing the subcrawl? A lot of people suggest using favorite songs to test, but that's not a reliable method. For the best results, I’d recommend using the subcrawl method with this video:
. Once you find the ideal position, Audyssey can fine-tune things even further.

If you have a null around the XO point, you can incrementally add up to a few feet of distance to the subwoofer. This can help impulse response as well as shore up the null. You can also try to raise the XO and see what happens. This is assuming you’ve exhausted all locations, as positional EQ is the first thing to sort out.

Sorry. We forget sometimes lol.
XO=crossover.
You can try the phase setting in the app, but I can’t recall if it’s infinitely adjustable or just 180°. If it’s just 180 then you might find it causes an issue somewhere else in the frequency response(FR). The distance tweak(adding distance to the sub in the AVR)as its sometimes called may also cause issues too, but the adjustments are more granular, and you still have to measure so you know what’s happening.
As for EQ, you can try, but I wouldn’t boost more than 6db, and I’d ONLY do it as a test to see if it changes anything. I don’t think it will, but it’s good to have as much information as you can. The distance tweak is easy to try and can be very effective. Basically telling the AVR that the sub is farther away, will make it fire sooner. Like milliseconds sooner. But if you get right, it can help with integration of the mains, and help “tighten”(yuk) up bass.
