You are right, in that I am satisfied with the amount of bass I am getting in out of phase mode. Also there is considerable more space and dynamics. What nags me is whether or not this is the way to solve the problem. I got this idea from owning a Rel sub where they suggest in hooking up the sub out of phase which may reduce bass boom. By the way I am not currently using the sub in my system. I thought about using an EQ like Rives, but maybe I would get the same results.
Smoother bass by running woofer out of phase?
In my dedicated room that is furnish with bass traps, I still get to much bass energy on bass heavy music. I discover recently that in bi wiring my speakers (ML Vantage)I wire the woofers out of phase;the bass bloat goes away and I have greater detail from top to bottom. What is the explanation of this and is this a recommended "fix" in dealing with excessive bass? Thanks, Sam
