In Reply to: Subwoofers in phase or out? a quick question posted by mattcecil1@yahoo.com on March 28, 2007 at 11:02:30:
When i 1st purchased these subs, Pual Grzybek told me to install cable jumpers between the positive sp terminals of both channels on each subs amp...i never did that. last night i had time & cut up 2 small lengths of anti-cable and began bending them into place. Installing these & setting both subs back in phase has made a huge difference. I judge all speaker posts now by their ability to hold 2 loops of bare solid core 12ga. anti-cable securely! not an easy task...I think the change i heard when switching both subs out of phase was simply a reduction in bass...I was listening to the main speakers alone & forgot how good they sounded. Plus the recent addition of a mapleshade 4" platform under my TT is still new & wild.
Once i move in a few months i will get a Behringer DEQX & calibration mics for sure. For now, the simplicity is working & having the subs a few feet behind the speakers (in each corner) works the best.
the budget subs I bought are badass - with a little tweaking. At some point i'll get better ones when the budget allows, but at least this way i'm not out major $ but i've got incredible sound. All i want different now is a remote control that controls both subs...that would be a dreamy.
thanks again you guys!!!!
