Move your sub

Frustrated by sub positioning I once placed my sub at the listening position then walked around the room. The place that seemed to have the right balance while listening is where I placed the sub. Though there was some tweaking it worked really well in my blasphemous attempt to integrate a sub with my Maggie’s. ( closed rectangular room)

That's not Art Dudley, it's Steven Guttenberg. Get your audio nerds right, guys ;-)

(I doubt Dudley has ever employed a sub in his set ups).

The key is to realize that a phase knob can only add delay.

The real magic to sub integration is being able to delay the main speakers so that you can have the sub where it truly performs the best in the room without compromise.

Also, crossing over a pair of subs to your mains, regardless of how “full range,” will almost always be best.

Oh, and the realization that bass trapping (when done right) is crucial.  Completely different than room correction.

Oh Lordy, my bad. It is indeed Steve Guttenberg and not Mr. Dudley. A simple error rather than oncoming senility.

Yeah…Steve…this video does lack Art.
