URGENT REPLY BACK


I would need to know the cause of this problem. I am leaving out of town for more than a week on Monday. After than I am thinking of sending my subwoofer back because time is running up for the 30 trial period.



Hey all, I just wanted to update you regarding this issue.

I have tested my sub with a new receiver (Yamaha one):

and also got a sub cable. I have used this for testing purposes and not planning of actually owning them.

I rented U-571, and I played the depth charge scene. In that scene their was a lot of bass, but not much from what I am suspecting. I just have a gut feeling it can do so much more. I have got plates in a cardboard box about 12 feet away from the sub and they don't rattle. Whats going on? I don't seem to find any objects moving/rattling except a very loose light bulb on my ceiling. Also my couches don't vibrate as well (14 ft from sub) and this is set to 11:30 o'clock position.

I find it very strange, because from peoples personal stories and them hearing their subs, I get nothing like that.

I have got a sub cable wire coming from line in to pre out sub from the receiver. I set all speakers to small, increased the volume of sub from receiver, and also put the crossover to even 80 Hz. Anythin else I should change from my receiver settings?

My basement is 6400 cubic feet or so, and it has wooden floors and the back wall from where the sub is, is made of concrete at its center.

Do you think maybe using a SPL meter will be helpful?

I am also gonna call an expert at Axiom as well to tell me what is going on.
