Hi Raul:
I have a couple of Wilson Maxx II's. They're rated @ 20hz, but they don't quite get there. If I place my subs in front of the speakers, won't that block my main bass? I have had the subs facing each other before, but they were behind my speakers. That placed them too close to the corner and overemphasized the bass. I saw a picture of a guys room and he had his on each side of his listening chair pointed away from him. I need to build a couple of diaphragmatic absorbers, as well as a couple QRD-13 dispersion panels. Won't help my current problem, but may help the over all sound. Do you incorporate these devices?
I have my sub sourced through my tape out on my Calypso preamp and have the subs rolled off around 35hz, so most of the main bass will go through my main speakers. I kinda like to play with the sub volume, specially on old LP's where they rolled off the bass to high. I know it's not "real", but still sounds better to me, than the rolled off sound. When playing quality LP's and the occasional CD, I set the sub volume and leave it. I was listening to The Thompson Twins "Through The Gap" the other day with my mains turned down low. I heard some really good low frequency, I hadn't realized was just coming through the subs, so I think I get them matched up pretty well. It's fun to just listen to the subs sometimes, just to hear things like that.
Sounds like your subs are really good. Wish I had shopped around more, but mine are OK. I'm still open to suggestions. As I said, wish I could find a filter to block everything from around 15hz and down.
