Since moving his mains, has he tried listening with the sub off to verify that the change isn't solely reinforced bass from the M80s?

Yes, tried it.

Although I am getting a little more (bass) from the M80's closer to the wall. The difference with the sub on/off is profound.

Jake,

In my earlier post I may (and probably) have over exaggerated about "total" cancellation. I was disappointed & kinda freakin out. It was just that I was expecting a big difference with a $750.00 sub. Now, with me hearing the bottom end properly from the sub, it gives me that "wow factor" I was missing before.

I sure have learned so much from all you. This forum gives some of the best support I've seen, with no criticism, especially to newbies like me. \:\)

Well, if you ever do want criticism, just stick around a while and put your system in a square room.

I to was considering the EP350 BECAUSE Im ready to upgrade my veledyne dps 10 but......... im a little concerned now. Why is it everytime I Find a sub that sparks my interest and THen I see something that turns me away. I was interested in the AVS MFW 15 to because of its reviews on performance and it really shined and then I started reading about so many amp failures.Now Im really confused ??? Maybe A SVS PB12 NSD ???


Factor,

Read my post above! You can see it wasn't the EP350! It was me. That's why they call people like me "newbie" \:\)

I thought that your sub had a wire off from shipping or ??? This thread is getting pretty long but thats what I thought you said and then when connected you still had issues .

Dana, that is a GREAT story. I'm so glad you were able to work everything out to your satisfaction. Like Sean, I am constantly amazed by just how critical room interactions can be. Especially with odd-shaped or open floor plans, there really is no practical way to model the science, so you just have to move pieces around and change settings in your own space.

I'm not at all surprised that positioning of the M80's impacted your experience. In addition to what they produce, they are also really big boxes. I think people underestimate how deep they are, and how the size of the enclosure can affect not only their placement, but also the sonic signature of the room.

The bylaws are actually a little vague on timing in this area, but it's good that you discharged this requirement early on. It will make subsequent advancement much more straightforward. JP will send you an official "D'oh!" medallion when the next batch is produced.

Tom, Dana can make do with this one until JP gets the correct version to him.



Just don't keep it too long, I'm sure I'll be needing it again soon. ;\)
