Thanks taikor. Will re-Audassey again when I have the time.

You are welcome, Elite Chew

When are you going to upgrade your speakers?

Tauke, when u free can come down and do the spl for me.

When I did the spl, it set my sub to +5.0db. Sub gain at almost 9 o'clock.

Using Audy. AVR trim is +3db. Can guide me. Still confused.

Just finished redoing my Audassey. With the sub gain at just above 9 o'clock, the trim on the AVR is +0dB. But cannot boom boom pow to test now as everyone is already asleep.

Taikor, need to save some moolah for other stuff. I'm very happy with my HT setup now, so no intentions for any upgrade for now. Peasant don't have high expectations so entry level stuff will suffice.

Checked it. It's-13.5dB



Taukeh ar188 poisoned you to buy those bling bling?

Wow elite AR got new bling bling?

Boss, set the PC12-Plus' gain at slightly above 10 o'clock. Then, do Audyssey. It sld be abt 0 to +1dB. If you intend to run hot, you may increase the gain at PC to abt 11 o'clock.



Elite Chew, it's his annual practice lah. Buy bling bling every year.

Max,
Should one strive to to achieve 0 at the avr subwoofer gain, after Audysey.
Mine shows -6dB, with the subwoofer knob at 11 o'clock.
What benefits are there in achieving 0 at the avr level?

I just redid mine after advice from Maxx. Previously it was -8dB trim at AVR with sub gain at 12 o'clock. Now it is 0dB on AVR and about 9 o'clock at sub. What I "felt" was the bass is now "more controlled". Less boominess and more thump. Not sure if this is just placebo effect or real. Just sharing my limited peasant experience.

Since 2EQ does not have filters for the sub, can I adjust the trim manually with the SPL meter, without running Audyssey again?.

Can. Trim avr to 0 dB and then adjust sub's gain accordingly. By then, your PC12-NSD's gain sld be abt 9 o'clock plus.

Absolutely spot on

Bro,

I ain't have the PC12-NSD. Waiting for the new gen of PC12-NSD (with DSP amp) to be here. Sld be in Nov / early Dec along with the rest of PC series.

New PB launching will be a tad earlier.

some noob question. what so good abt with DSP amp?

since you are selling mission speaker and SVS. how is the the SVS s series center speaker compare to the mission center speaker?

I am thinking of dual sub setup and I have a few Q's
Will these new PC12-NSD be different from the current bash amp fitted ones?
If dual sub set-up, integration will be problem or not since they will have different characteristics for sure.
Can retrofit the new dsp amp?

Got special pre-order price for the new NSD?
Returning customer get an extra discount on top of that or not?

The new DSP amp will have marginally more linear response. Possibly slightly tighter bass. Apart from that, nothing much except better reliability.

I doubt it would be difficult to integrate as the 'signature sound' will be identical. The DSP amp fitted PB and PC could see a rise in price. Not sure how much. Indicative is 5% - 15%.

JiauBoy, the SCS-01 has much thicker vocal and tonal quality. It is better than the Klipsch RC52 too. wkw7889 (IIRC the nick) auditioned both system.

Dual sub is the way to go....and oh, get an AS-EQ1 as well. The sound signature shd not change too much with the amps, as the internals of the cabinet and drivers are all the same. The DPS amps allow more tweaking (not for the user) to attempt to push more out of the driver but the BASH amps are no pushover either.

Watched 12 Rounds this morning. I swear I could hear about a second of massive distortion during 1 boom boom pow scene, at that was at -20dB on my AVR. Never thought that could happen to PB12.

is it bottoming out? That must be one powerful LFE scene there.

Do you have Percy Jackson iso? You may try out the last 4 scene (IIRC) where Percy fights with Luke at a rooftop.

Bro, it is not bottoming out, but just some massive distortion, like something is going to fall apart somewhere. Not sure if it was some part of my living room vibrating or the sub itself. Anyways it just happened once and I can't reproduce it.

I have Percy Jackson, will test it out next week.
