Im curious to see how your FR graph is without the ability to phase, and how much that will change with the implementation or ability to do so....
I am really in the same boat as you, finding the right solution with DIY subs.
Hopefully that
[email protected] box unit can get on its feet... running it inline after the SMS (with firmware fix) 1 for each sub... might be a great solution... $40 - $50 each..
Guess we have to wait to see how it all plays out..
I was also concerned about phasing before I started the dual setup. I knew going into it that I probably would not or could not place them together.
I did get a chance to run though the SMS setup again, but I did not take any pictures.
Basically, the response seem smoother in some areas and in other areas the peaks and troughs are much more exagerated.
Prior to adding the second sub, I really only applied the boost to the low end everything else was not worth fixing a db or two. After adding the second sub, the main seating position is still fairly good, but off to the side there is a huge peak at around 45 Hz and huge null around 80 Hz. That is kind of a bummer. I just kind of averaged things out to make it respectable in all areas.
Adding a second (non colocated) sub definitely ratchets up the complexity in tuning. I am guessing it would be easier with independent phase control, but I don't have enough experience in that regard.
I am very close to pulling the trigger on a DEQ, but like you said there are other products coming down the pike shortly so maybe one will do the trick...
