General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Let's clear up the phase thing

Phase? Maybe I'm not using the correct terminology.

If I'm listening to a recording with a trap drum set and changing the phase via the subwoofers remote the kick drum simply sounds better as in more in time I'm assuming that track is out of phase. If I choose I can switch the subs back and manually switch the full systems phase at the preamplifier which in many cases sounds better than simply adjusting the subs. On many recordings the next track would beg to be switched back.

Set up once. Yes, now that I've settled on the subwoofers optimum locations I've set my subs up via their onboard equalization software which is my baseline EQ to preset 1. I use this setting predominately and I may adjust the subs gain to taste.

As described in my earlier post I have five other slightly altered equalization presets that can enhance to my taste, not necessarily for maximum performance, a range of recordings.
