Well, I took the plunge and bought a SVS SB12+, mostly on size & price.
I expect to get flamed by many purists who quite reasonably suggested that my large PMC speakers deserve a much larger sub!
However, since space, aesthetics & price were the major factors, the SB12+ seems like the best compromise. For now, at least.
First impressions are very favourable with lovely clear deep basslines in my Ska CDs. I am looking forward to testing it out properly.
I will need to look into doing a room EQ check using SPL meter, laptop & REW software. I am scared by this prospect at the moment!
Until I get my head around it, what settings would be suggested by those of you "
who are so wise in the ways of subsonic science"
At the moment I have it set as follows:
Gain: approx 9am
Phase: 0
Room Comp: Bypass
PEQ and xover: Bypass
Input used: Low level
I could set Room Comp to Large, I suppose.
Does a good subwoofer cable contribute much?
Any advise appreciated.
Thanks,
David
