I read somewhere that locating a sub at the rear of the room when the mains are at the front can cause problems with response in the crossover region.
Does anyone know how severe this can be?
I'm trying to find a location for an IB without resorting to roof-mounted or under-floor options which would upset the neighbours.
According to REW, the best response is achieved with a pair of IB's firing into the rear of the room either side of the listening position.
This would allow the subs and the noisy EP2500 to be located in a study

Hi Collo
When I use my rear single IB alone, I need to cross it over around 40Hz to make it unlocatable - at 60 it is just locatable. (When using both front and rear subs, 60Hz is fine) I also use sub amps with phase control which the amp manufacturer helped me setup when we commissioned them.
Front mounting would be preferable although I can recommend one at each end sounds good at my place
