After using my new Test cd2, I've discovered the following spikes. 31.5hz, 80hz, and 4khz. The 4k one I can fix by covering my aquarium that sits behind me. The 80hz issue seems to eminate from the corner opposite (parallel) with my sub. The 31.5 seems to resonate from everywhere. I can turn the sub down enough where the 31.5 is about flat, but I no longer have anything below the 31.5 area. The 80hz is my biggest concern. The room is approx 12x18 with much of the right side open to the dining room. I would like to regain some of the sub 31.5 hz back. I don't think that the 80hz is coming from my sub, as I set the xover at about 50hz. My speakers do sit on a ledge of a built in bookshelf/entertainment ctr. This bookshelf doesn't go all the way to the left wall. It goes to about 18". So, I have my left speaker at the edge of this shelf, then there's the edge of the bookshelf that goes to the ceiling, comes out about 24" from the back wall, and is 18" away from the side wall. Should I try putting something into that corner "cubby hole"? is this area a big problem? My sub sits in this area as well. Should I move it out? System Thanks Rob |
