boss..2 sub can get better bass arr..
bcoz last time i try already i used my JBL pb12 and klipsch ksw 10(if i'm not wrong)
i placed it front and back ..but i think i don't really like the bass la...too boomy ...
that time i used yamaha rxv-2300 (no auto calb)...
what say u...

I wanna add, is it necessary to use 2 twin subs or mix also can?

Yes by using Y-spliter.Why do you want to using twin sub..1 sub still not enough meh

I knew of a guy in Canada with 4 SVS subs in his home theatre

TheFactor? He has 4 PB13-Ultras. IIRC, ronaldjoe did post the photo.



It is never easy to calibrate 2 subs in a room to make it blend nicely especially when you have 2 different brands / designs (Sealed and ported). It is always recommended to use the same make and model when you are doing multiple subs setup.

I shall not bore you all here. Here's a good link for your reading :

there is always proper set up needed....btw good link tks boss...

Gd link, will study. Cheers.

I am actually glad to know that more and more people are learning about subwoofer rather than plonking it in and set the gain high up to produce 'whoompa whooommpa' floor shaking bass while overwhelming other details from speakers.

in the immortal words of ms Ris Low, more BOOMZ!

Hi,

Maybe rearing-in a 2 sub system takes close to an engineerin degree to understand but watever it is, u cant deny havin more output wif 2 or more subs n my take is tat u dont hv to wring everytin out of one sub if u hv 2[or more].. in d long run, u ll hv both subs workin for a lot longer..

D

Instead of using 2 subwoofer, use one that is powerful enuf. If u split in to 2, u wont enjoy the real bass coming from ur amp. There is might be some distortion.

what?

Heh heh,

He nids to be introduced to wat a multi sub sounds like when playin a gud action mv..

D

and obviously someone is not reading the link that I posted above

By using 2 subs of the same make and model esp if you put it in both corner of your front, it will yields better result with better bass response across a wider listening area. Not to mention that you will gain 6dB out of it (usually), you can trim it down on the gain to get 75-78dB, which will be lesser burden to both subs.

And here goes the link on "Are 2 subs better than 1?" :

Very agree.Some type of peoples always like to KEBOOM and shaking neighbours house and the same time overwhelming other details like you say
For me subwoofer main tasks is to produce LFE that it must produce.Ngam..ngam..Not to much KEBOOM and not to lack KEBOOM.

Qustion:
I will increase 3db sub level after I have done auto calibration.From what I have read before,auto calibration cannot do accurate sub level compare to others speaker due to LFE. So if soon I want to calibrate using SPL meter,just set to c-weighted slow response and adjust volume level gain at sub until it reach 75db..correct me

huh? i dont think this is true as far as my research tells me.

Yes, you are correct on it.
