Sub placement driving me crazy!

[funky_waves]

Simple way to find the best place for the sub, is to place the sub at listening position, play pink noise or even some bass heavy material, then go around the room and find where the bass is best, that is where to put the sub.
Note; sometimes this dosnt work pefectly if there is no good place for the sub due to a bad room, but its a lot easier than moving the sub around and around forever.

There may be a solution. I had bad cancellation issues and found the only solution for me at the time was adding a second sub. I had to sit in line between them to get any decent bass response. See post #9 of this thread. (first pic.)

If you could try this arrangement out, it may be what you need for your room. If you don't have a second sub, hopefully you can borrow one just for testing.

Hi David, What's the point in doing that?

Hi Ahmed ...

The idea was to move the seat out of the dead zone and seat between the four surrounds, but he said he owns a 7.1 already; so no need for parallel speakers

P.S.:

7.1 running as 5.1 right now - and thats not too bad of an idea - throws the whole 110degree thing off but not a bad idea...
