So first things first, here are some pics of my room:
The room itself is quite small, it's about 3x3m.
However... the side from which the photos are taken is completely open and opens to my dining room and kitchen.
There is only a thick cloth curtain for light control.
My gear right now:
Denon AVR-X3600H
2x Q-Acoustics 3050 - Floorstanders
1x Q-Acoustics 3090 CI - Center
2x Q-Acoustics 3020 - Surround
2x Q-Acoustics Qi65C - Atmos
1x SVS PB-1000 Subwoofer
The room has 100-200mm industrial noise insulation behind the plasterboard and in the ceiling. The floor is wood with a mat underneath.
Acoustic treatment was done as a professional project with reverb simulation software.
The room is very damped down, there is no noise.
I am happy with everything, but the bass. I don't think I have anywhere else where I can put the subwoofer. I've tried placing it to face the listening position, but ultimately left it like it is now.
I have run Audacity with the knob on the sub at 12 o'clock, which sets the sub to -7 dB. Right now I am running it 4 dB hot, at -3 dB. Movies are just barely OK. Bass in music is kinda underwhelming. I mean for general listening it is very good, and the sound is crystal clear due to the acoustic treatment, but sometimes the bass junkie in me wakes up and just wants to shake the house a little, and I can't do it.
So, I've listed the PB-1000 for sale, and I'm trying to find something to replace it with. Keeping in mind the super limited room, what would you suggest?
I think a PB-2000 pro can fit there. A PC-2000 Pro can fit easily, but I am worried that it might obscure some of the 3050 speaker.
I've debated a SB-3000. But I am not sure it will be much of an upgrade in movies over what i have now, however music should be better.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Btw, I am in Europe. So there is not that much available to me.
SVS is, besides that Rel, Magnat, B&W, Dali, and some other European brands.
