So ... used the custom filter from Martin Logan that actually lets the sub mostly replace the woofer in the speakers ... at least below 120hz and turned the bass on the Ethos down as per the instructions and it sounds much better. Even with the PBK it couldn't correct for the room issues ... pushed back a bit sounds much better given the room issues. Once I get the GIK panels in place I may be able to get the standing wave issues resolved so that I can move the subs around more and get to a more optimal setup. Thanks for the suggestion!


You are more than welcome and you have a terrific system. This forum allows us to interject personal thoughts to try and help one another. Good luck with GIK panels. I know how difficult it is to deal with less than ideal rooms through my work as a CEDIA installer. Those panels should help and hopefully you will get the bass you're looking for.
