| Re: I don't really hear my bass! It should be stated that i have done no real calibration of the system, other than messing with crossovers and such. The room is so small, and my options for moving things around so limited, that I never really felt it would help. I would like to try the room eq wizard to see what it says, however i don't have a mic of anykind.
I ran my system with only the cerwin for quite awhile, i personally like the sound better. however, whenever we have parties (in the halls and such) my system is the one that's always on, so i turn on the big DCM to get a little more punch.
As for the boomyness being good bass, i agree that boomyness is not what i'm going for. I was listening to the song "Sideways" by santana in a friend of mines room who just has an Altec Lansing 4 speaker + sub computer speaker setup, and i swear the bass sounds so much smoother on that thing compared to my monster. there really is no audible bass in my system. If you're sitting down it'll shake the bejesus out of you. However if you're standing up, or out in the hallway, you don't really hear much. I guess i'll mess around with the crossovers somemore, and maybe switch the locations of the subs. try running only the cerwin again. It's just very frustrating. I had my DCM down in our lounge, which is a pretty big room, hooked up with 4 MTX 3 way satelites and a Yamaha receiver and i swear i could have had a Rave going on down there. But once you stuff that sucker in my tiny room, you lose all sound.... .stupid little room. |
