Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater Underwhelmed with SVS 25-31PCI

I don't think the problem is the sub. I'm running a 20-39PC+ but I wouldn't expect a huge difference if you and I traded subs. As everyone is saying, location of sub and listener is the big variable, and every room is a bit different.

I would try putting the sub right behind the sofa (buy a long cable) if you want a simple change that will probably make a huge difference, but doing a sub crawl (sub in the listening position, walk around until you find the bass, put the sub there) is the best solution.

Several people have reported finding the bass output in odd locations; I think Alan found that his room channeled all the bass into a closet... Tharkun found all the bass in a computer room around the corner from his listening room... etc...

Don't give up yet.
