Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Mis conceptions that lead to terms like "tuneful bass"

"Some designers believe satellite loudspeakers should ideally crossover as as high a 125-200Hz. Letting the woofer- subwoofer handle frequencies as high a 250Hz."

Talk about misconceptions, what's your source ("some designers")?

"I have had decent success with sidewall located subwoofers transitioning to mini-monitors or line sources based on 2 inch drivers at 150-200Hz."

While this supports your previous claim, I disagree with the notion of any speaker performing optimally near a room's boundary.

"Then it is easier to tune the room so you get "tuneful base"

Misconceptions makes it more difficult.
