Help!!!  Can you assist me with developing clean vibrant bass? I have Reaction Audio 12 inch Turbo subwoofers in a 4th bedroom that I use as my listening room.  The subwoofers have amazing potential and I will review them on their thread.  Crossover is set on my receiver at 80.  The subwoofer volume is set 1/3 to half way up and phase is set at 0. The subwoofers are up on yoga blocks about a foot out on opposite walls.  Is it better to stack them in the corner? There are two windows with blinds closed.  The only furniture in there is a sofa and recliner. I'm new at this so any recommendations on setting calibration, phase, gain and all that would be appreciated from all you experts out there. I love this forum.

You posted the same thing. Gain and other are levels and phase from other people are meaningless for your setup.

Thanks for the input. I have a radio shack meter and I'll play with the numbers

Can you explain what phase means? And what do I set the two subwoofers at, phase 0? What do you mean by phase by others are meaningless? I'm new and not trying to be repetitive. Any help is great. Really.

Can you snap some pictures of your setup in your room? This would probably make it easier for folks to chime in on possible improvements.

Yep the more info you can provide us the better we can help you. Also from your other thread your AVR is lacking IMO. If you can I would try to pick up a 7.2 receiver with some form of Audyssey preferably Mult EQ or better.

Size of room including ceiling height?


Is it open or closed off?


Where is your seating area located in relation to the room?


Have you done a "subwoofer crawl" ?
