balance

24.93.136.70

hi,
you want to hear a balanced presentation, with no octave obviously louder or softer. There is no simple answer here. IMHO, 120 hz is only for
systems designed to work that way. In those systems the sub is really a bass module that typically can't go as low, or as loud, as a real sub.
The two things to try first are to run the stereo pair full, and move the sub around the room trying to get a good balance. The second thing is to set the stereo pair on THX, and move the sub around.
What i did was to get a cheap filter that rolls off anything above 52 or 54 hz. This has worked pretty well, but it is a case where you just have to see what sounds good.If i had my druthers, i would roll off a little lower, but my stereo speakers have plenty of bass.
